To investigate general misconception on eye problems, we analysed the data from 10 questionnaires about the myopia and defective color vision of protocol type answered by 1344 students of middle school, high school, and college for the first report. The results were as follows: 1. The mean number of correct answer was 3.7. 2. The number of correct answer was related to the school carrier but not to sex, residence, and wearing glasses. 3. The incidence of correct answer to questionnaires about the etiology of disease was relatively lower than those about the treatment.
