简介:目的探讨干眼症发生的主要相关因素。方法选择2006年5月至2007年11月间眼科门诊就诊的屈光不正、眼底病患者及行常规体检的健康者133人为研究对象,主要包括问卷调查和干眼病检测两个部分。问卷调查内容有人口学特征、工作环境、生活习惯与全身疾病等。先进行单因素分析,找出与干眼症发病相关联的因素,然后再对有意义的因素进行多因素综合分析,找出干眼病发生的主要危险因素。结果单因素分析结果表明:与干眼症发病相关的因素有年龄、荧光屏接触时间、野外工作时间、工作环境、吸烟和糖尿病。行Logistic回归分析,最终有统计学意义的因素为:年龄、野外工作时间和工作环境。结论就纳入本研究的因素而言,影响干眼症发病的主要因素是年龄、野外工作时间和工作环境,而荧光屏接触时间、吸烟及罹患糖尿病在一定程度上影响着干眼病的发生。
