OBJECTIVE: To learn the clinical characteristics of patients with dry eye syndrome.
METHODS: The following items were recorded in 115 patients (229 eyes) with dry eye, including symptoms, causation, systematic diseases, slit-lamp examination, tear break-up time, basal and reflex Schirmer's test, vital staining (fluorescent and rose bangle) and meibomian gland dysfunction examination. Rheumatoid factor and auto-antibody detection were performed in Sjögren's syndrome suspected patients.
RESULTS: Aqueous tear deficiency (ATD, 48.7%) ranked the most common type, followed by over-evaporation dry eye (34.8%), mixed type (13.9%) and conjunctivochalasis (3.5%). In all the causes of the dry eye, about 11.3% had Sjögren syndrome (SS). Females suffering from dry eye were more than males, especially SS. Dryness was the most common symptom (84.0%), especially in ATD patients, then followed by ocular fatigue (72.0%), foreign body sensation (64.0%) and impairment of vision (56.0%). The ocular irritation was more severe in meibomain gland dysfunction (MGD) patients than in ATD patients. Among the results of tear break-up time (BUT), rose bangle (Rb) staining and fluorescent (Fl) staining in all types of dry eye, significant relationship was found among them, especially between Rb and Fl score (r = 0.612, P = 0.000). SS patients had much more severe abnormality in all the four signs than non-SS aqueous tear deficiency (NSTD) and MGD patients. However, in the comparisons of BUT, Rb and Fl between NSTD and MGD patients, there were no significant differences.
CONCLUSION: Symptoms combined with examinations of BUT, Schirmer's test, Fl and Rb staining and meibomian gland function are the necessary means to diagnose most of the dry eye patients.
