“…(1)(2)(3) The tear film was detailed by Wolff (4) in 1946, as a structure of 7-10 µ thick whose main functions are: lubrication of the ocular surface, antibacterial activity, oxygenation, nutrition, and formation of a refractive optical surface. (5) Dry eye can be the result of weaknesses in the preproduction of the tear film, in qualitative dysfunction of it, or due to problems in its secretion. It results, then, in a complex of several symptoms from discomfort, visual disturbances and tear film instability to potential damage of the ocular surface.…”

Investigar a concordância entre o teste fenol vermelho e o teste de Schirmer para quantificação lacrimal junto a um questionário para detectar sintomas de olho seco. Métodos: No total, 49 pacientes participaram do estudo. Cada participante teve um olho examinado pelos dois testes. Os sintomas de olho seco foram avaliados através de 5 perguntas. Os dados foram coletados e depois analisados pelo método de estatísticas Kappa para avaliar a concordância entre os testes. Resultados: A sintomatologia foi positiva em 65,3%(32) pacientes. Em grupos de idade, pacientes com 60 anos ou mais tiveram sintomatologia em 70,5% das vezes, enquanto no grupo de 40-59 anos foram positivos 59,3%. O teste de Schirmer foi positivo para olho seco em 51%(25) dos pacientes, enquanto o teste fenol vermelho foi positivo em 65,3%(32). O valor de Kappa entre os testes foi de 0.548, demonstrando uma concordância moderada entre eles. Conclusão: A realização do questionário sintomático evidenciou uma maior sintomatologia de olho seco nos pacientes de maior idade. O valor de Kappa resultou em uma concordância moderada, considerada relevante, principalmente pelo fato de nenhum dos dois testes ser o padrão ouro para o diagnóstico de olho seco e pela variabilidade de resultados que os testes podem trazer.

Objectives: To compare the wettability and wetting time between open and closed eyes of post menopausal women using Schirmer's test without anaesthesia (ST) and to assess the number of dry eyes in open (STO) and closed (STC) schirmer test. Methods: One-Hundred and Twenty eyes of 60 normal Post-Menopausal women were recruited from Sri Ramachandra University. Schirmer test (ST) was performed in a closed environment with the absence of air flow. This procedure was performed with the subjects both eyes open and closed with an interval of 1 hour and were conducted in 5 minutes. If wetting values are 35 mm before 5 minutes, wetting time should be recorded. Results: In this study 120 eyes of 60 Post-menopausal women were included. Measurements of ST I performed with open eyes (27.0 ± 9.5) were higher statistical different from those performed with closed eyes (17.5 ± 11.0) in right eye of the patients. Measurements of ST I performed with open eyes (27.5 ± 9.9) were higher statistical different from those performed with closed eyes (19.0 ± 11.4) in left eye of the patients. Wetting time of ST I performed with open eyes (4.1 ± 1.2) were lower statistical different from those performed with closed eyes (4.7 ± 0.8) in right eye of the patients. Wetting time of ST I performed with open eyes (4.1 ± 1.2) were lower statistical different from those performed with closed eyes (4.6 ± 0.8) in left eye of the patients. The p value from measurements of ST I for right and left eye was 0.0005 and the p value from wetting time for right and left eye was 0.0005, so, there was a significant change between open and closed eyes. Conclusion: ST performed with open and closed eyes can have an important influence in the diagnosis of dry eyes in post-menopausal women.
