METHODS:A total of 373 naval fleet members were selected by stratified random sampling method from July to October 2016. By asking the medical history and basic personal information of the subjects, the naked eye visual acuity, the best corrected visual acuity, slit lamp examination including: eyelid, eyelid margin, meibomian gland changes, cornea and conjunctiva signs of ocular surface damage, and corneal fluorescein staining to determine the tear breakup time(BUT). The Ocular Surface Disease Analysis Scale(OSDI)and ocular fatigue questionnaire were filled in, the incidence and severity of ocular fatigue were counted, and the risk factors of ocular fatigue were analyzed.

RESULTS: Totally 63.0%(235)of the crew members had different degrees of visual fatigue. There was no correlation between asthenopia and gender, age and previous corneal refractive surgery(P>0.05); Dry eyes and exposure time of electronic screen were the risk factors(P<0.01). The overall prediction accuracy was 76.9%.

CONCLUSION: The exposure time of dry eye and electronic screen is the risk factor of visual fatigue in continuous navigation crew.
