Purpose.
To investigate the effects of age on the prevalence of ocular surface diseases (OSD), adherence to treatment, and recovery rates.
Patients and Methods.
Retrospective analysis of 3000 clinical records from a first-level general ophthalmology clinic.
Patients with OSD were prospectively submitted a questionnaire to assess compliance and recovery rates.
Results.
OSD prevalence was 10.3%.
Patients with OSD were significantly older than patients without it: 67.5±20.3 versus 57.0±22.0 years (P=0.036).
No significant difference in season distribution was shown.
Dry eye disease (DED) represented 58% of OSD; its prevalence increased with age until 80 years old and suddenly decreased thereafter.
Asymptomatic DED was 37%.
Adherence to treatment in OSD was very high (94%); recovery rates were lower in patients aged 21–40 and 61–80 (resp., 65.5% and 77.8%) and this was associated with higher OSDI scores.
Tear substitutes represented 50% of all prescribed medications; their use increased with age.
Discussion.
In a “real-life” low-tech setting, OSD showed a prevalence of 10.3%.
DED was the most prevalent disease, and it was asymptomatic in more than 1/3 of cases.
