Нарушения рефракции это распространенные виды аномалии зрения, способные оказать существенное влияние на успеваемость и повседневную деятельность. Понимание восприятия и осведомленности студентов об этих состояниях имеет решающее значение для поддержания здоровья глаз и соответствующей коррекции зрения.</p></sec><sec><title>Цель</title><p>Цель. Установить восприятие и осведомленность о нарушениях рефракции среди студентов бакалавриата в Иордании.</p></sec><sec><title>Материалы и методы</title><p>Материалы и методы. Анонимный опрос был проведен среди 358 студентов бакалавриата в период с января по март 2023 года с помощью структурированной анкеты закрытого типа.</p></sec><sec><title>Результаты</title><p>Результаты. В анкетировании приняли участие 358 человек, включая 188 (52 %) лиц мужского пола. Установлено, что 173 респондента (48,3 %) знают о возможности хирургической коррекции рефракционных аномалий, а 119 (33,3 %) знают о контактных линзах. Пятнадцать человек (20,2 %) ответили, что не носят очки из-за головных болей, в то время как 19 (25,7 %) не видят в этом смысла. С другой стороны, 72 человека (56,3 %) сообщили, что носят очки постоянно, а 112 респондентов (87,5 %) хотели бы попробовать другой метод коррекции зрения. Отношение участников к ношению очков было скорее негативным.</p></sec><sec><title>Заключение</title><p>Заключение. Осведомленность студентов об аномалиях рефракции и различных доступных методах их лечения была высокой. Очень разное отношение респондентов к ношению очков указывает на необходимость альтернатив­ных способов лечения.</p></sec></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><sec><title>Introduction</title><p>Introduction: Refractive errors are common visual impairments that can significantly affect academic performance and daily activities if left uncorrected. Understanding students’ perceptions and awareness of these conditions is crucial for promoting eye health and ensuring appropriate vision correction.</p></sec><sec><title>Objective</title><p>Objective: To determine perceptions and awareness of refractive errors amongst undergraduate students in Jordan.</p></sec><sec><title>Materials and methods</title><p>Materials and methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted anonymously on 358 students. A structured closeended questionnaire was distributed to those studying in undergraduate courses in January March 2023.</p></sec><sec><title>Results</title><p>Results: The questionnaire was administered to 358 participants of whom 188 (52 %) were male. We found that 173 respondents (48.3 %) were aware of surgery as a method of correcting refractive errors while 119 (33.3 %) were aware of contact lenses. Fifteen (20.2 %) said they did not use glasses because of having headaches, while 19 (25.7 %) believed it made no difference. On the other hand, 72 people (56.3 %) reported wearing glasses all the time, while 112 respondents (or 87.5 %) would like to try another method of eyesight correction. The participants’ attitudes were slightly negative towards the use of glasses.</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusions</title><p>Conclusions: Awareness of refractive errors was high as well as the awareness of various available methods of their treatment. The attitudes towards spectacle wear were found to be varying, thus showing the need of alternative treatment options for students.</p></sec></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>осведомленность</kwd><kwd>восприятие</kwd><kwd>нарушение рефракции</kwd><kwd>хирургическая коррекция</kwd><kwd>контактные линзы</kwd><kwd>очки</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>awareness</kwd><kwd>perception</kwd><kwd>refractive error</kwd><kwd>surgery</kwd><kwd>contact lenses</kwd><kwd>spectacles</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Polat OA, Kurt A.
