| dc.description | This project addresses how the assessment of students from 3rd to 5th grade at the Ciudad de Montalvo Educational Unit was able to identify the most common refractive errors, including myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism, which often go unnoticed due to the lack of programs or specific guidance for teachers to assess the visual health of their students. This can impact the emotional well- being of children, as well as their academic performance. Through a preventive approach, we seek to identify these visual problems at early stages and involve teachers in the detection of possible difficulties. In this way, a culture of prevention and care for visual health is promoted within the educational community. When talking about prevention, we emphasize (a progression of refractive error). The methodology will consist of performing visual assessments on students, determining the prevalence and the most common types of refractive errors, and establishing a continuous monitoring system for those who require attention. The creation of a guidance guide for teachers to facilitate early recognition of visual symptoms is also proposed. The research has an important justification, as it contributes to improving the quality of life of students, prevents long-term visual complications and reinforces the role of the school as a key space for preventive health. In addition to focusing on visual health, the study seeks to lay the foundations for future educational and health policies in the institution. | es_ES |

| dc.description.abstract | El presente proyecto aborda como la valoración en los estudiantes de 3er a 5to grado de la Unidad Educativa Ciudad de Montalvo, pudo identificar los errores refractivos más comunes, de estos la miopía, hipermetropía y astigmatismo, los cuales suelen pasar desapercibidos debido a la falta de programas o guía especifica a docentes para evaluar la salud visual de sus estudiantes. Esto puede repercutir en el bienestar emocional de los niños, así como en su desempeño académico. A través de un enfoque preventivo, se busca identificar estos problemas visuales en etapas tempranas e involucrar a docentes en la detección de posibles dificultades. De esta manera, se promueve una cultura de prevención y cuidado de la salud visual dentro de la comunidad educativa. Al hablar de prevención nos hacemos énfasis (a una progresión del error refractivo) La metodología consistirá en realizar evaluaciones visuales a los estudiantes, determinar la prevalencia y los tipos más comunes de errores refractivos, y establecer un sistema de seguimiento continuo para quienes requieran atención. Asimismo, se propone la creación de una guía de orientación dirigidos a docentes y para facilitar el reconocimiento temprano de síntomas visuales. La investigación tiene una justificación importante, pues contribuye a mejorar la calidad de vida de los estudiantes, evita complicaciones visuales a largo plazo y refuerza el papel de la escuela como un espacio clave para la salud preventiva. Además de centrarse en la salud visual, el estudio busca sentar las bases para futuras políticas educativas y de salud en la institución. | es_ES |
