It meansthere are 257,600 blind people of 50 and above, 198,609 of them have cataract blindness. In the termof cataract problems, West Java government has been implementing the prevention of blindness andlow vision program since 2005, but backlog of cataract is still high. Lots of barriers on cataract surgicalservices program come from provider and population. Five main kind of barriers come from populationare costs, distance, social and culture, community awareness, and trust to provider. Information ofbarriers is important for program planning to overcome the barriers. The purpose of this research is toreport the barriers of cataract surgical services program in West Java province according to RAABsurvey.Methods: This study is West Java population-based cross sectional study using Rapid Assessment ofAvoidable Blindness (RAAB) protocol, with multistage cluster sampling that was conducted in 2014.Results: Cataract blindness prevalence was 0.8% (95% CI 0.2-1.3%) for male and 2.2% (95% CI 1.4-2.9%) for female. Cataract surgery was performed more in male (44.1%) than female (25.8%). Mainbarriers in male group of cost, need no felt, fear, and unaware of treatment are possible; while thebarriers in female group were cost and fear. An unaware of the treatment is possible.Conclusion: The barriers of cataract surgical services in West Java were cost, need no felt, fear, andunaware of the treatment are possible. We need to manage the cost and increase community awarenessand willingness of cataract surgery to encounter the problem cataract blindness and visual impairmentin West Java province.

Abstract

Abstract Introduction & Objectives : One of the main therapies used to treat amblyopia in the dominant eye is occlusion therapy. When used on the dominant eye during activities, eye patches can lead to quality of life issues include visual, cosmetic, and psychosocial disorders. To improve visual acuity in the suppressed eye and stop a progressive loss of visual acuity, therapy must be followed. An important factor affecting a child's compliance with occlusion therapy is parental support. Parental negativity affects children's level of support, and as a result, a decreased compliance. This research aimed to determine the relationship between quality of life and the perspectives of parents and children receiving occlusion therapy. Methods : This is a correlation study with a cross-sectional design. Fifty-one subjects were addressed in the amblyopia children's group and fifty-one subjects in the parents’ group. Every participant was directly interviewed. Correlation analysis was used to assess the relationship between the results of interviews with children and their parents. Results : There is a decrease in the quality of life in children undergoing therapy, both from the perspective of the child and their parents. The decline in the quality of life that occurs in children is not as low as parents think. The results of the questionnaires for the children and their parents in total demonstrated a significant correlation (p = 0.0001) and a moderately positive correlation (R = 0.598). Conclusion : There is a positive correlation between children and parents in assessing the quality of life due to occlusion therapy.
