台灣民眾視覺障礙盛行率之趨勢研究

目的：本研究旨在探討台灣民眾視覺障礙標準化盛行率及年代趨勢之變化。方法：本研究利用我國衛生福利部公告2010年至2019年「身心障礙人數按類別及年齡別分」資料，以視覺障礙民眾為研究對象。以2010年之年中人口數做為標準人口，先透過EXCEL 2016試算表軟體進行資料彙整與描述性分析，再以Cytel Studio 8套裝軟體進行年代線性趨勢之檢定。結果：在年齡層方面，2010年至2019年間視覺障礙者各年齡層標準化盛行率皆呈現下降趨勢。在各年齡層之性別分層方面，「0-17歲」、「45-64歲」、「65歲以上」男、女性標準化盛行率呈現下降趨勢，以上均達到統計上之顯著水準。結論：18-44歲標準化視覺障礙盛行率趨勢下降的較為趨緩，因此，建議政府能補助成人眼科定期檢查，以降低民眾視覺障礙的風險。

Objectives: With advancing age, the advancement of technology and the change of eye-use habits, the eyes have ＂younger＂ disease vision, but the prevalence of visual impairment in the overall Chinese population is rarely used as a research. This study explores the prevalence and trend of standardization of visual impairment in Taiwan. Methods: This study uses the data of the ＂Disabled Persons by Type and Age＂ published by the Statistics Division of the Ministry of Health and Welfare of my country from 2010 to 2019 and the visually impaired people in Taiwan who have a handbook for the physically and mentally handicapped. Objective. Using the mid-year population in 2010 as the standard population, calculate the trend analysis of the prevalence of gender and age standardization of visually impaired persons. First, use EXCEL 2016 spreadsheet software for data collection and descriptive analysis, and then use Cytel Studio 8 package software for the verification of the chronological trend. Results: According to the results of Poisson regression, the standardized prevalence of visual impairment in all age groups showed a decreasing trend from 2010 to 2019. In terms of each age group to the gender, the standardized rate for the 0-17, 45-64, and over 65 years old age groups of males and females all showed a decreasing trend. In all of the above, the difference was statistically significant. Conclusions: The prevalence of standardized visual impairment in 18-44 years has slowed down. Therefore, it is recommended that the government subsidize regular ophthalmology examinations for adults to reduce the risk of visual impairment.
