Abstract

Amaç: Koronavirüs 19 (COVID-19) geçiren hastalarda kuru göz varlığının araştırılması.
Gereç ve yöntem: Çalışma prospektif olarak planlandı. Süleyman Demirel Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi hastanesine rutin göz muayenesi için başvuran ve son 6 ay içerisinde COVID-19 geçirmiş 27 hastanın 54 gözü ile yaş ve cinsiyet bakımından uyumlu 30 sağlıklı bireyin 60 gözü çalışmaya dâhil edildi. Tüm olgulara gözyaşı kırılma zamanı (BUT) ve Schirmer 1 (anestezisiz) testi uyguladı.
Bulgular: Ortalama yaş hasta grubunda 30,1±7,7, kontrol grubunda 29,6±6,2 idi. COVID-19 geçirilmesi
üzerinden geçen zaman ortalama 11,6±7,2 hafta (min 2-maks 24) idi. BUT değeri hasta grubunda ortalama
11,46±3,96, kontrol grubunda ise 11,70±3,52 saniye idi ve iki grup arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark yoktu (p>0,05). Schirmer testi hasta grubunda ortalama 18,75±7,82, kontrol grubunda ise 17,31±6,23 mm idi ve iki grup arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark yoktu (p>0,05). Covid grubunda rastlanan oküler bulgular gözde sulanma ve kızarıklık (%11) ve peribulber ağrı (%7) idi.
Sonuç: COVID-19 geçirmiş bireylerin gözyaşı testlerinin normal bireylerden farklı olmadığı görüldü. COVID-
19’un kuru göze neden olmadığı sonucuna varıldı.

COVID-19 and dry eye

Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate the dry eye in patients with Corona virus 19 disease (COVID-19).
Materials and methods: In this prospective study 54 eyes of 27 patients who had COVID-19 within last 6
months and 60 eyes of 30 age and sex matched healthy controls were included. After the eye examination the tear film break-up time (BUT) and Schirmer 1 test (without anesthesia) was performed in all subjects.
Results: The mean age was 30.1±7.7 in study group and 29.6±6.2 in controls. The mean time after recovery
of COVID-19 was 11,6±7,2 weeks (min 2-max 24). The mean BUT value was 11.46±3.96 seconds in the study
grup and 11.70±3.52 seconds in controls and the difference between two groups was not statically significant (p>0.05). The mean Schirmer 1 test value was 18.75±7.82 mm in the study group and 17.31±6.23 mm in controls and the difference between two groups was not statically significant (p>0.05). There was no ocular findings other than epiphora and hyperaemia (11%) and periocular pain (7%) in COVID-19 group.
Conclusions: There was no difference in dry eye tests between COVID-19 patients and healthy subjects.
COVID-19 may not cause dry eye in patients.
