To determine if targeted education can influence the behaviors and scores of soft contact lens (SCL) wearers via the Contact Lens Risk Survey (CLRS).
This was a multicenter, prospective, case-control study. Cases were symptomatic red eye SCL wearers (age, 18-39 years), and controls were age , sex, and site matched. Participants completed the CLRS and were provided targeted patient education at three time points: baseline, one, and six months. Change in scores and behaviors were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed rank test.
Forty-one cases and 71 controls were analyzed. The mean risk score (mean±SE) from baseline to follow-up improved (reduced) for all participants (-1.96±0.73; P =0.01), mostly driven by the improvement among cases (-2.55±1.32; P =0.05). Case subjects reported a decrease in frequency of wearing lenses while showering (-0.32±0.07; P <0.0001), discarding lens solution (-0.13±0.06; P =0.03), and rinsing lenses with tap water (-0.19±0.08; P =0.02) after targeted education.
Targeted patient education can influence some behaviors of SCL wearers, especially those who experienced a red eye event. Further study is needed to determine how to improve other risk behaviors and whether these changes are sustained long term.
通过接触镜相关风险调查(CLRS)确定目标教育是否可以影响软性隐形眼镜(SCL)佩戴者的行为和评分。
这是一项多中心、前瞻性、病例对照研究。病例为有症状的眼红 SCL 佩戴者(年龄 18-39 岁),对照组为年龄、性别和地点匹配的患者。参与者完成 CLRS 并在三个时间点(基线、1 个月和 6 个月)接受针对性的患者教育。使用 Wilcoxon 符号秩检验分析评分和行为的变化。
分析了 41 例病例和 71 例对照。所有参与者的平均风险评分(平均值±SE)从基线到随访均有改善(降低)(-1.96±0.73;P =0.01),主要是由于病例组的改善(-2.55±1.32;P =0.05)。病例组报告在洗澡时佩戴隐形眼镜的频率降低(-0.32±0.07;P <0.0001)、丢弃隐形眼镜护理液(-0.13±0.06;P =0.03)和用自来水冲洗隐形眼镜(-0.19±0.08;P =0.02)的频率降低,接受目标教育后。
针对性的患者教育可以影响一些 SCL 佩戴者的行为,尤其是那些经历眼红事件的患者。需要进一步研究如何改善其他风险行为,以及这些变化是否能长期持续。
