Objective Investigate the current situation of poor vision within the college students and confirm the influence of poor vision on their sports ability. Methods Data from physique and health survey data students in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region in 2014 were used and 5760 college students aged 19-22 were selected as the research object. Six indices of sports ability were selected, including vision, grip strength (strength), pull-ups/sit-ups (muscle endurance), standing long jump (explosive force), 50-meter running (speed), sit-and-reach (flexibility), 800/1000-meter running (systemic endurance). The software, SPSS25. 0, was used to calculate the detection rate of impaired vision in college students with different attributes. Students were divided into the normal vision group and the poor vision group according to the criteria of poor vision(P < 0. 05). The independent-sample T test was used to analyze the difference of the athletic ability of college students under the conditions of different vision, and the significance level was determined as P<0. 05. Results The detection rate of poor vision was higher in girls than in boys, higher in urban areas than in rural areas, and higher in Han than in Mongolian. In the comparison of gender classification, the speed, explosive force, muscle endurance, systemic endurance and flexibility of boys with normal vision were better than those with poor vision, and the strength, speed, muscle endurance and systemic endurance of girls were better than those with poor vision also, the differences were statistically significant (P<0. 05);In the comparison of urban and rural classification, the speed, explosive force, muscle endurance, systemic endurance and flexibility of urban boys with normal vision were better than those with poor vision ;The speed, muscle endurance and systemic endurance of rural boys with normal vision were better than those with poor vision; The strength, speed, muscle endurance and systemic endurance of urban and rural girls with normal vision were better than those with poor vision, the differences were statistically significant (P<0. 05). In the ethnic classification comparison, the speed, muscle endurance and systemic endurance of Han boys and the speed, muscle endurance and explosive force of Mongolian boys with normal vision were better than those with poor vision; The strength, speed, muscle endurance, systemic endurance and flexibility of Han girls and the strength, speed, muscle endurance and systemic endurance of Mongolian girls with normal vision were better than those with poor vision, the differences were statistically significant (P<0. 05). Conclusion The rate of poor vision is higher in urban areas than in rural areas, higher in girls than in boys, and higher in Han than in Mongolian in general. The sports ability of the students with normal vision is generally better than those with poor vision.
