Abstract:

The OCULUS Jenvis-OSDI dry eye questionnaire and OCULUS ocular surface comprehensive analyzer were used subjectively and objectively to analyze the heath of ocular surface.Results:According to the OSDI dry eye questionnaire, mild dry eyes were 21 cases accounted for 23.3%, moderate dry eyes were 42 cases accounted for 46.7%, and severe dry eyes were 21 cases accounted for 23.3%. The main symptom of dry eye was foreign body sensation, accounting for 53.3%. The secondary symptoms were photophobia and blurred vision, which accounted for 46.7% and 40%, respectively. The OCULUS ocular surface comprehensive analyzer showed that the amount of tear secretion in both eyes was normal. In dry eye grading based on average tear film break-up time, critical dry eye accounted for about 60% and dry eye accounted for about 10%. Eye red analysis showed that 9 patients (10%) with hyperemia score>2.0 were dry eye caused by inflammation.Conclusions:The nursing school students have a high incidence of dry eye and subjective symptoms. It indicates that the students overuse eye and do not pay attention to eye hygiene. It is the responsibility of the nursing teacher to carry out health education for students, popularize scientific and rational use of eye knowledge, and pay attention to eye health.
