Métodos: Estudo prospectivo, populacional e aleatorizado, no qual foram avaliadas 11.000 pessoas da região centro-oeste do Estado de São Paulo, nos anos de 2004/2005, por meio de consultas oftalmológicas e utilizando uma unidade móvel. Foi realizado exame oftalmológico completo. Os dados foram transferidos para tabela Excel, utilizando-se para o presente estudo dados referentes aos anexos e doenças do olho externo. A frequência de ocorrência dos problemas detectados foi analisada estatisticamente. Resultados: Foram detectadas 1.581 (14,6%) afecções de anexos ou do olho externo, sendo as mais frequentes o pterígio (9,4%), o hordéolo (0,8%) e as alterações do posicionamento palpebral (1,7%) (ectrópio, ptose e triquíase). Trauma, ectrópio e pterígio foram estatisticamente mais frequentes na população masculina. Conclusão: Das afecções pesquisadas, a de maior ocorrência na população foi o pterígio, seguido das alterações inflamatórias e do posicionamento palpebral.

All the children studying in the above mentioned schools and residing in the same area were covered. All the study subjects were interviewed, clinically examined and given a proforma to be filled by their parents. Of the total 775 subjects only 91 (11.74%) had ocular infections. Conjunctivitis was the most prevalent infection followed by trachoma, stye, blepharitis and chalazion. The type and prevalence of infection was similar, in both sexes and both areas, rural and urban.
