Purpose : To investigate the suitability of the standard patient evaluation of eye dryness (SPEED) questionnaire using the ocular surface disease index (OSDI) to evaluate for the screening test of dry eye in young adults.
Methods : This study was performed a comparison of the SPEED with the established OSDI questionnaire regarding the evaluation of dry eye from 134 undergraduate students aged 19 to 31 years. In addition, tear film breakup time (TBUT) was measured, and non-invasive tear break-up time (NITBUT) and tear meniscus height (TMH) were also measured using Keratograph 5M.
Results : The Cronbach’s α of the SPEED and OSDI questionnaires was 0.861 and 0.864, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of SPEED were 78.0% and 95.2%, and those of OSDI were 86.1% and 100.0% respectively. There was a highly significant correlation between OSDI and SPEED values with a correlation coefficient of 0.819 (p<0.001). Diagnosis of dry eye using OSDI and SPEED was 59.7% (n=80) and 64.2% (n=86), respectively. The factors influencing the OSDI score were contact lens wear (p=0.001), sex (p=0.017), hours of using smartphone (p=0.031), and sleeping hours (p=0.001). Also, the factors influencing the SPEED score were sex (p<0.001), hours of using smartphone (p=0.001), and contact lens wear (p=0.016).
Conclusion : This study investigated the suitability of the SPEED questionnaire using the OSDI for the evaluation of dry eye. The results indicate that the SPEED questionnaire would be usefully used as a screening test for the evaluation of dry eye in young adults.
