“…Youtube videos were found to be of low quality and inadequate in a study on vitrectomy surgery in vitreous hemorrhages, and the mean DISCERN score was 37.2 ± 6.5, the mean JAMA score was 1.9 ± 0.5, and the mean GQS was 2.0 ± 0.5. The median DISCERN score was 32.8 ± 10, the median JAMA score was 1.3 ± 0.5, and the median GQS score was 3.1 ± 1.1 in a study evaluating YouTube videos on ptosis surgery, and it was emphasized that the videos were not a credible educational information source [ 15 , 16 ]. YouTube videos about keratoconus, on the other hand, were found to be educational and instructive, with a mean DISCERN score of 42.92 ± 18.14, a mean JAMA score of 2.7±0.72, and a mean GQS score of 3.07±1.25 [ 17 ].…”

Introduction Congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction (CNLDO) causes excessive eye tearing or mucoid discharge. Twenty percent of one-year-olds globally have CNLDO. There are many sources that offer information to parents. This study evaluates the quality and accuracy of CNLDO-related YouTube videos. Methods The first 100 videos that appeared after typing "congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction" in the YouTube search engine were evaluated. These videos were also analyzed and scored using the DISCERN, Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), and Global Quality Scoring (GQS) systems. Results Forty videos met the inclusion criteria. The mean DISCERN score was 47.3 ± 9.15, JAMA was 1.72 ± 0.87, and GQS was 3.1 ± 0.81. The duration of the videos uploaded by the non-physician group was significantly longer (p = 0.04). In addition, the JAMA score of the videos uploaded by the physician group was significantly higher than that of the other group (p = 0.03). Theoretical videos were longer than surgical videos (p = 0.02). DISCERN, JAMA, and GQS scores were statistically higher in the theoretical video group (p = 0.002, p = 0.04, and p = 0.03, respectively). Conclusion According to our research, the quality of YouTube videos about congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction is average. This information source can be improved by making videos with more detailed information about the disease and theoretical information, as well as by having health professionals look over the content that has been uploaded.
