|
Purpose: This study was performed to investigate the relationship between dry eye by fatigue and stress.
Methods: Using the survey data aimed at a total of 365 adults aged 19 and over, the subjects’ sociodemographic variables, Fatigue Severity Scale, Stress Scale, and Ocular Surface Disease Index were applied in a self-administering way, and the cross-sectional study was conducted.
Results: The dry eye appeared significantly higher in women, and the more the alcohol was drunk, the higher the dry eye appeared in those who had chronic diseases. The dry eye showed slightly higher in people aged 40 and over, smokers, and operated eyes, but there were not significant differences. On the other hand, the dry eye was significantly higher in the contact lens worn group. The higher the fatigue was in the group, the more serious the dry eye was, and as the stress level increased, the dry eye also increased. The dry eye appeared odds ratio 1.53 times higher in the high fatigue group, and odds ratio 3.87 times higher in the contact lens worn group.
Conclusion: It was identified that the higher the fatigue and stress was, the more the dry eye was felt much.
