Visual and ocular pathologies are among the main causes of vision loss worldwide. Objective: to describe visual and ocular morbidity in the central region of Colombia according to reports from the database of Individual Records for Health Care Delivery, or RIPS reports 2013-2015. Methodology: Quantitative, retrospective, descriptive cross-sectional study of the most frequent visual and ocular pathologies registered among the population of the central region of the country. For the analysis, we used the codes found in chapter VII of the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Version (ICD-10), in 18 groups, according to the classification defined by the Ibero-American Epidemiological Network in Visual and Ocular Health. (REISVO). Results: The pathologies with the highest morbidity in the central region population were disorders of: conjunctiva (15.22%); extra ocular muscles (13.37%); accommodation and refractive disorders (13.06%). Disorders of the cornea showed the lowest rates (0.7% and 1.03%). Conclusions: Conjunctival disorders had the highest rate among ocular conditions in the central region, in population ages 15-44. Female patients exhibited the highest rate of visual affections. The contributory health care system had the highest number of visual health appointments.
