Abstract
Objective: This study aims to determine the prevalence of accommodation insufficiency among young Caucasian adults in Greece. Methods: Accommodation amplitude was assessed using the minus to blur method (PRA). Results were compared against Donder's and Hofstetter's values. Participants were categorized into "normal," "borderline," and "insufficient" based on deviations from expected values. Results: Over 50% of participants exhibited accommodation insufficiency. Men had significantly lower rates of normal accommodation amplitude compared to women. Further research is required to explore the impact of refractive errors on accommodation issues. Conclusions: Accommodation insufficiency is a significant issue among young adults, necessitating further studies and the establishment of standardized measurement methods. Investigating the role of the ciliary muscle in accommodation is also recommended.
