| Summary: |
Dry eye symptoms and tear
film profile were examined in 21 patients with Graves'
disease complicated by active thyroid orbitopathy (OT).
Dry eye symptoms and clinical tests: break-up time
(BUT), Schirmer I, fluorescein and lissamine green
staining in OT patients, were comparable with control
group.
Dry eye symptoms were present in 85% of OT patients
compared with 30% in control group. BUT (5.84±3,31sec.)
and Schirmer test (11.11±9,14mm) were significantly
lower when compared with control group (11.4±3,75sec and
20.5±9,65mm). Lissamin green staining intensity score
(3.61±1,74) as well as positive fluorescein staining in
OT patients, were significantly higher when compared
with control. |
