Abstract

Color blindness (CVD) is a condition in which the eye cannot distinguish certain color wavelengths or cannot distinguish colors at all. This condition can be detected with several tests, including the Ishihara Method or the Farnsworth Munsell Method. Both of these tests are not suitable for kindergarten children because the numbers used in the Ishihara Method do not match the child's cognitive level, and the repetitive color chip ordering method in the Farnsworth Munsell Method tends to make children bored. This contradicts expert opinion that recommends eye health tests be carried out as early as possible, or at the age of 3-5 years. Therefore, there is an urgent need for early-detection media for color blindness in kindergarten children that are appropriate to the child's cognitive level and interests. This research aims to design a prototype activity book as a medium for early detection of color blindness in kindergarten children, focusing on adapting the color hues of the Farnsworth Munsell color blindness test method into several interactive activities and reducing the use of large nominal numbers in the Ishihara test method. This design uses Design Thinking methods, reaching the prototype stage, to produce an initial visualization of an interactive activity book for early detection of color blindness in kindergarten children.

Abstract

This study discusses the design of a pop-up book titled "Mata Sehat, Penglihatan Jernih" as an early education medium for children's eye health. The background is the high number of cases of visual impairments, such as myopia, hypermetropia, and astigmatism, in school-aged children in Indonesia, and this is often not detected early due to a lack of knowledge and awareness. The pop-up book was chosen because it can convey complex medical information in a simple, visual, and interactive way, making it easy to understand and interesting for children. The study aims to produce an effective and fun pop-up book concept as an eye health education medium, with a design that is suitable for children. The design method used is Design Thinking with four stages, namely empathy, problem definition, ideation, and prototype. The empathy stage is conducted through literature reviews and internet sources to understand the needs of children and parents regarding eye health education. The definition stage explains the problem, namely the lack of understanding of children about the importance of maintaining eye health from an early age. The ideation stage creates a pop-up book concept featuring cartoon illustrations, cheerful, pastel colors, and interactive elements. In contrast, the prototype stage involves sketching, drawing characters, arranging the layout, and designing the pop-up mechanism. The resulting design is a pop-up book containing visual and interactive information about eye health. It is hoped that this book will increase children's and parents' understanding and awareness of the importance of maintaining eye health from an early age through a fun learning medium.
