Dry eye disease (DED) is a growing public health concern causing ocular discomfort, fatigue and visual disturbance that interferes with quality of life (QoL), including aspects of physical, social, psychological functioning, daily activities and workplace productivity. This paper assesses the current understanding of the impact of DED on QoL and vision. The full impact of DED on a patient's QoL is not easily quantifiable, but several methods and techniques have been evaluated to measure the decreased quality of vision from DED, and a number of questionnaires have been developed to quantify the impact of DED on various aspects of patient QoL. We summarize available evidence on the impact of DED based on a review of published literature.
干眼症（DED）是一个日益受到关注的公共卫生问题，它会导致眼部不适、疲劳和视觉干扰，进而影响生活质量（QoL），包括身体、社交、心理功能、日常活动和工作场所生产力等方面。本文评估了目前对干眼症对生活质量和视力影响的认识。干眼症对患者生活质量的全面影响不易量化，但已经评估了几种方法和技术来测量干眼症导致的视力下降，并且已经开发了一些问卷来量化干眼症对患者生活质量各个方面的影响。我们基于对已发表文献的综述，总结了关于干眼症影响的现有证据。
