New Research: DRY EYE Harms More Than Just Vision – Doctor Reacts
A new study was done in the UK looking at dry eye disease. What they looked at in this study is not only the dry eye disease itself but how it actually harms other areas of your body. What they found is that there are many health conditions associated with it.
This study links dry eye disease with broader health concerns and other health conditions. Patients suffering from dry eye disease face vision problems and new research shows how this condition can also harm physical and mental health. It shows that patients have a lower quality of life compared to those without dry eyes.
Dry eye disease is a condition that affects many people of any age but it is most prevalent in women and older people. In older people, it’s estimated that up to a third of adults over the age of 65 have this condition which includes symptoms such as irritation, redness in the eye, blurred vision, and sensation of grittiness in the eye.
In this new study led by the University of Southampton exploring how dry eye disease affects the lives of adults in the UK included a thousand patients with the condition in a thousand without. All patients were required to answer a questionnaire from the National Eye Institute about their visual function and health-related quality of life of the participants.
What they found is that a higher proportion of participants with dry eye disease have problems with mobility. The study also revealed that they were more likely to suffer from depression and anxiety.
