    (Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP), 2013-03-27) Lopes, Rodrigo Gustavo [UNIFESP]; Scarpi, Marinho Jorge [UNIFESP]; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8945297747305462; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8339875553140061; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)
    Purpose: To verify the hydrostatic pressure (HP) effect on the intraocular pressure (IOP) of swimmers. Method: An experimental descritive study, were the swimming pool temperature was kept by 32°C. All the 33 volunteers, 18 women and 15 men, aging from 18 till 40 years, had their IOP measured by the same ophthalmologist using Perkins® tonometer, in 4 moments: i) 15 minutes seated outside the swimming pool; ii)15 minutes inside the swimming pool with water on the knees' line; iii)15 minutes inside the swimming pool with water on the hips' line; iv)15 minutes inside the swimming pool with water on their shoulders line. Results: We found no statistical difference (MANOVA analysis) betwen the studied groups. Conclusion: Don´t have a significant result on IOP during the swimmers immersion in different water levels, and the swimming pool temperature was kept on 32°C.

    OBJECTIVE: Early detection and prompt treatment of ocular disorders in children are important to avoid lifelong visual impairment. This study aimed to describe a comprehensive eye health care program for preschool children. METHODS: A descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out focusing eye health conditions of 23,374 children, between five and seven years old, of the public preschool system of Embu, a municipality of São Paulo, Brazil, from 1994 to 2002. Data were obtained from preschool vision screening programs performed by teachers and from ocular assessments of all children referred to ophatalmologic and orthoptic evaluation. RESULTS: 600 preschool teachers qualified for eye problems screening tested 22,118 (95%) preschool children out of 23,374 that attended the school during the study period. Among them, 4,553 (21%) needed an ophthalmologic exam and 3,016 (66%) were examined by the ophthalmologist. Of those examined, 1,389 (46%) neceived spectacles, 477 (16.8%) were referred to orthoptic care and 1,601 (53%) were discharged. CONCLUSIONS: Visual screening programs are successful for promoting eye health. Teachers, if appropriately trained, are helpful eye care partners. For effective preventive pediatric eye care, it is necessary to promote eye health education programs.
