Abstract

Eye health issues in China are becoming increasingly severe and affecting younger populations. The government has introduced multiple policies to promote eye health strategies, yet problems such as poor translation from awareness to behavior remain prominent. Existing research abroad focuses on the link between self-efficacy and eye care behaviors but lacks studies on traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Domestic research emphasizes policy impacts but does not clearly clarify the pathway of cognitive-behavioral transformation, and TCM eye care techniques lack scientific dissemination and guidance. Based on social cognitive theory and the health belief model, this study explores the mechanism linking social cognition and optometric health care behaviors, constructs a four-dimensional social cognition framework, and reveals the pathway of cognitive-behavior transformation. Innovatively, the study integrates TCM eye care models, proposing a triadic pathway of “cognitive enhancement—efficacy reinforcement—environmental support” and group-specific strategies, providing support for the standardized dissemination of TCM eye care techniques, filling existing research gaps, and contributing to the improvement of national eye health levels.
