Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and risk factors of young patients with dry eye.
Methods:From January 2016 to December 2017, in Jincheng Ophthalmology Hospital, 100 patients with dry eye disease were selected as the observation group, and 100 healthy volunteers were selected as control group.The general data and auxiliary examination data of the two groups were compared, and the risk factors of the patients with dry eye were analyzed.
Results:The ratio of contact lenses (31/100 vs.16/100), sinusitis (29/100 vs.12/100), angle conjunctivitis history (34/100 vs.13/100), antibiotic eye drops (35/100 vs.17/100), eye operation history (12/100 vs.4/100), daily reading writing time>2h (38/100 vs.22/100) and ametropia (27/100 vs.13/100) in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group, the differences were statistically significant (χ2=6.258, 8.866, 12.265, 8.420, 4.348, 6.095, 6.125, all P<0.05). The BUT [(6.59±2.36) vs.(13.41±3.51)] and Sit [(8.92±2.28) vs.(12.35±4.16)] in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group, and the FSL [(2.15±0.91) vs.(0.58±0.19)] in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group, the difference was statistically significant (t=13.546, 6.852, 5.935, all P<0.05). Logistics multivariate analysis showed that with contact lenses, the history of keratoconjunctivitis, the use of antibiotic eye drops, the history of eye surgery, daily reading time>2h and ametropia were independent risk factors for the patients with dry eye(OR=3.882, 3.264, 2.118, 3.776, 1.168, 3.833, all P<0.05).
Conclusion:The important risk factors for young dry eye include contact lens, the history of keratoconjunctivitis, the history of ocular surgery and ametropia, which need to be paid attention to.
