THE RELATIONSHIP OF JOB FACTORS AND CLOSE READING HABITS WITH MYOPIA SUFFERING IN TEENAGERS

Abstract

Based on the concept of static refraction, myopia is a condition in which parallel rays entering the eyeball are refracted by the refractive media in front of the retina. As a result, objects that are far from the eyeball do not appear clearly in the patient's vision. The inability of a person to see distant objects clearly can occur, among others, due to heredity, work and reading habits or position, work environment, etc. To overcome refractive errors in myopia sufferers, minus spherical correction lenses can be given in front of the patient's eyes, so that the light that falls in front of the retina can be shifted and focused right on the retina. The purpose of this study, the authors want to explain the existence of a mutually influencing relationship between near work vision and close reading habits, as well as room lighting used by people with myopia. This research was conducted using a quantitative research method with a sampling technique "systematic random sampling". The results of this study found that myopic refractive errors occupied the highest percentage, namely 65.5%, that there was a mutually influencing relationship between work vision and close reading habits, as well as room lighting used by people with myopia
