Abstract
Abstract: The use of contact lens is currently increasing, especially among young people. Contact lens is safe to use, however if behavior and contact lens care are not appropriate it can pose a risk of complications. This study aimed to obtain the overview of behaviors in using and taking care of contact lenses among students of Medical Faculty Universitas Sam Ratulangi Manado. This was a descriptive study with a cross sectional design involving 57 students. The results showed that based on age, the highest percentage of contact lens users was 20 years (35.1%) and the lowest percentage was 17 and 23 years (each of 1.8%). Based on sex, female students were predominant than male students (80.7% vs 19.3%). The most common behavior was removing contact lenses while sleeping (100%) and the least frequently performed was taking medication reducing tear production (3.5%). In conclusion, more than half of the students who wear contact lenses have good behavioral category in using and taking care of contact lenses.

Abstrak: Penggunaan lensa kontak saat ini meningkat terutama di kalangan anak muda. Lensa kontak aman digunakan namun jika perilaku dan perawatan lensa kontak tidak tepat dapat menimbulkan risiko komplikasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendapatkan gambaran perilaku penggunaan dan perawatan lensa kontak pada mahasiswa Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Sam Ratulangi Manado. Jenis penelitian ialah deskriptif dengan desain potong lintang, yang melibatkan 57 mahasiswa Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Sam Ratulangi Manado. Hasil penelitian mendapatkan mahasiswa pengguna lensa kontak terbanyak berusia 20 tahun (35,1%) dan paling sedikit yang berusia 17 dan 23 tahun (masing-masing 1,8%), sedangkan berdasarkan jenis kelamin lebih banyak mahasiswa perempuan yang menggunakan lensa kontak (80,7%) dibandingkan mahasiswa laki-laki (19,3%). Perilaku yang paling banyak dilakukan oleh mahasiswa yaitu melepas lensa kontak saat tidur (100%) dan paling sedikit dilakukan yaitu mengosumsi obat yang menurunkan produksi air mata (3,5%). Simpulan penelitian ini ialah lebih dari setengah mahasiswa pengguna lensa kontak memiliki perilaku pengguaan dan perawatan lensa kontak termasuk dalam kategori baik.
