Abstract

Schizophrenia is a chronic mental disorder that significantly contributes to global disability. Schizophrenia patients experience impairments in multiple functional areas such as cognition, mobility, self-care, social interaction, and participation in daily life activities. Evaluating the magnitude of these disabilities is crucial for designing targeted interventions and improving patient outcomes. Objective: This study aims to assess the level of disability in schizophrenia patients using the WHO Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS 2.0) at Dr. Arif Zainudin Regional Psychiatric Hospital, Surakarta. Method: A quantitative descriptive study using an observational-analytic approach was conducted with 106 patients with schizophrenia. Data were collected using the WHODAS 2.0 questionnaire, which assesses six functional domains: cognition, mobility, self-care, getting along, life activities, and participation. Data were analyzed using SPSS 26 software. Results: The study found that usual to mild impairment was observed in all domains. Cognitive impairments were seen mainly in problem solving and concentration. Mobility and self-care tasks were manageable, but independence was slightly impaired. Social interaction and community participation were limited by emotional and environmental factors. Conclusions: Patients with schizophrenia exhibit mild disability across multiple domains, particularly in social and emotional aspects, highlighting the need for targeted interventions to improve their functional outcomes.

Abstract

Asthenopia, or eye strain, is a condition characterized by a decline in visual performance resulting from excessive accommodative effort, manifesting in ocular, musculoskeletal, and psychosocial symptoms. University students represent a vulnerable demographic due to the high intensity of digital device usage required for academic activities. Left untreated, this condition can lead to serious complications, including the degradation of visual acuity. This program aimed to provide education on the management of asthenopia through the implementation of practical eye exercises. The methods included video-based counseling, procedural demonstrations, and evaluation via return demonstration (redemonstration). Result Initial identification revealed that the predominant complaints were drowsiness during near-work activities (31.8%) and reading inefficiency (5.7%). Post-intervention evaluation indicated a positive response; 55.7% of participants reported that eye exercises were highly effective, while 36.4% found them somewhat helpful in alleviating fatigue. Furthermore, the objective of independence was achieved, with 79.5% of participants demonstrating the ability to perform the exercises independently. In conclusion, eye exercises serve as an effective intervention for reducing asthenopia symptoms and enhancing participant self-efficacy. This program is recommended as a sustainable, self-managed preventive strategy for university students in the digital era.
