OBJECTIVES: To estimate the prevalence of strabismus in children and adolescents in Germany and to determine the associated risk factors, particularly those related to early childhood development.
METHODS: In the German Health Interview and Examination Survey for Children and Adolescents (KiGGS, baseline survey 2003 to 2006, N = 17,640, 49.1% girls), the presence of strabismus and potential risk factors were derived using parental questionnaires. The analyses were performed using the KIGGS public use file. The following relevant factors were analyzed: smoking during pregnancy, gestational age at birth, birth weight, medical problems within the first four weeks of life, and officially confirmed disability. Associations with strabismus were evaluated using multivariable logistic regression analysis. Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals [95%-CI] were calculated and adjusted for age, sex, socio-economic status, migrational background, and participation in regular pediatric checkups.
RESULTS: The prevalence of strabismus was estimated to be 4.1% [3.7-4.5]. Boys had a slightly lower prevalence (3.7%; [3.3-4.2%]) compared to girls (4.4%; [3.9-5.0%]; p value > 0.05). After adjusting for confounders, strabismus was found to be significantly associated with smoking during pregnancy (OR = 1.38; [1.08-1.78]), gestational age (OR = 0.91 per week; [0.86-0.96]), medical problems within the first four weeks of life (OR = 1.29; [1.01-1.65]) and disability (OR = 4.33; [2.81-6.67]), but not with other risk factors under study.
CONCLUSIONS: In Germany, strabismus is among the most prevalent chronic eye conditions. Former preterm infants and disabled children and adolescents are at greater risk.
