Current Status and Risk Factor Analysis of Dry Eye in Children at Ophthalmology Outpatient Department
Objective To analyze the occurrence of dry eye disease in children at the ophthalmology outpatient department and its risk factors.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 210 children treated at the ophthalmology outpatient department of the Affiliated Hospital of Yangzhou University from June 2022 to May 2023.A self-made questionnaire was used to analyze the incidence of dry eye among children,and multifactorial logistic regression analysis was applied to identify the risk factors for the occurrence of dry eye disease.Results Among the 210 children,62 cases of dry eye disease were identified,resulting in an incidence rate of 29.52%.Based on this,they were divided into a dry eye group(62 cases)and a non-dry eye group(148 cases).Univariate analysis showed statistically significant differences between the two groups in age,allergic conjunctivitis,refractive errors,contact lens use,use of non-prescription eye drops,daily electronic device usage time in the past month,daily outdoor activity time,daily sleep duration,and study posture(P＜0.05).Multifactorial logistic regression analysis revealed that the risk factors for dry eye disease in children included age 13-15 years,presence of allergic conjunctivitis,frequent use of non-prescription eye drops,daily electronic device usage time greater than 2 hours,and daily sleep duration of less than 8 hours(OR＞1,P＜0.05).Conclusion The incidence of dry eye in children at our hospital's ophthalmology outpatient department is relatively high.The identified risk factors for the occurrence of dry eye disease in children are age 13-15 years,allergic conjunctivitis,frequent use of non-prescription eye drops,daily electronic device usage time greater than 2 hours,and daily sleep duration of less than 8 hours.
