DRY EYE SYNDROME IN THE SHARPLY CONTINENTAL CLIMATE OF UZBEKISTAN AND ITS RELATIONSHIP WITH ATROPHIC RINITIS

Xamidova F.M. - Samarkand State Medical University

Resume

Purpose: To study the relationship between dry eye syndrome (DES) and atrophic rhinitis. Materials and Methods: The study included 54 patients (108 eyes), divided into two groups: the main group (28 patients with atrophic rhinitis) and the control group (26 patients with DES without rhinitis). The diagnostic methods included the Norn test, Schirmer test, OSDI, meibography, and OCT meniscometry. Results: The tear film breakup time was significantly lower in the main group (mean 5.6 sec vs. 6.6 sec in the control group, p<0.001). The Schirmer test showed similar results in both groups (p>0.05), indicating no significant differences in tear production. The OSDI questionnaire demonstrated a higher severity of subjective complaints in the main group (30.2 points vs. 25.5, p<0.001). Meibography revealed more pronounced changes in the structure of the meibomian glands in the main group, but the differences were not statistically significant (p>0.05). OCT meniscometry showed a decrease in tear meniscus height and corneal wettability angle in the main group. Conclusion: Patients with atrophic rhinitis exhibit significant tear film instability and more severe subjective symptoms of dry eye. This confirms the pathogenetic link between atrophic rhinitis and DES, highlighting the need for an interdisciplinary approach to diagnosis and treatment

Key words: dry eye syndrome, atrophic rhinitis, tear film stability, meibomian gland dysfunction
