The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of dry eye symptoms among lecturers.
The study included 254 lecturers employed at Mersin University. The lecturers were selected by simple random sampling from lists obtained from the personnel department. Data were obtained between November 15 and December 15, 2017 using a questionnaire developed by the researchers and the Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI). The data were evaluated using descriptive statistics, Student’s t-test, ANOVA, and correlation tests with the SPSS package program.
Of the lecturers who participated in the study, 52.8% were male and 47.2% were female, and the mean age was 39.29±9.41 years. According to OSDI scores, 20.5% of the participants had mild, 15% had moderate, and 36.5% had severe disease. There were significant differences in mean OSDI score based on sex (p<0.001), alcohol use (p=0.01), continuous drug use (p=0.03), wearing glasses (p=0.04), history of dry eye (p<0.001), and presence of dry eye symptoms (p<0.001). There were also significant differences between the OSDI score categories in terms of sex (p<0.001), smoking status (p=0.04), wearing glasses (p=0.03), history of dry eye (p<0.001), and presence of dry eye symptoms. The only factor significantly correlated with OSDI score was daily duration of computer usage (p=0.009).
Our study showed that a substantial proportion of lecturers experience dry eye symptoms, and OSDI scores were associated with daily duration of computer use. Determining the factors associated with dry eye is important for the planning of preventive interventions.
本研究旨在评估讲师中干眼症状的患病率。
该研究纳入了梅尔辛大学的254名讲师。这些讲师通过从人事部门获取的名单中简单随机抽样选取。2017年11月15日至12月15日期间，使用研究人员编制的问卷和眼表疾病指数（OSDI）获取数据。使用SPSS软件包程序进行描述性统计、学生t检验、方差分析和相关性检验来评估数据。
参与研究的讲师中，52.8%为男性，47.2%为女性，平均年龄为39.29±9.41岁。根据OSDI评分，20.5%的参与者有轻度疾病，15%有中度疾病，36.5%有重度疾病。基于性别（p<0.001）、饮酒情况（p=0.01）、持续用药情况（p=0.03）、戴眼镜情况（p=0.04）、干眼病史（p<0.001）和干眼症状的存在（p<0.001），平均OSDI评分存在显著差异。在性别（p<0.001）、吸烟状况（p=0.04）、戴眼镜情况（p=0.03）、干眼病史（p<0.001）和干眼症状的存在方面，OSDI评分类别之间也存在显著差异。与OSDI评分显著相关的唯一因素是每日电脑使用时长（p=0.009）。
我们的研究表明，相当一部分讲师有干眼症状，且OSDI评分与每日电脑使用时长相关。确定与干眼相关的因素对于预防干预措施的规划很重要。
