Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışma huzurevi yaşlılarında kuru göz semptomları sıklığını ve ilişkili faktörleri belirlemek amacıyla planlanmıştır. Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel tipte bir saha çalışmasıdır. Araştırma öncesi Aydın Aile ve Sosyal Politikalar İl Müdürlüğü aracılığıyla Aydın ili Huzurevi'nden ve yaşlı bireylerden yazılı izin alınmıştır. Aydın'da bir huzurevinde kalan 141 yaşlı bireyden araştırmaya katılmayı kabul eden 45 yaşlı birey dahil edilmiştir. Veriler "Sosyodemografik Özellikleri Belirleyici Form" ve "McMonnies Kuru Göz Anket Formu" kullanılarak Temmuz-Eylül 2014 ayları arasında yüz yüze görüşme tekniği ile toplanmıştır. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde SPSS 16.0 paket programı kullanıldı. Tanımlayıcı verilerin analizinde sayı ve yüzde dağılımlarından, ölçek puan ortalaması ile diğer değişkenler arasındaki farklılıkların incelenmesinde Mann Whitney U testi ve Kruskall Wallis istatistik testlerinden yararlanıldı. Bulgular: Yaşlıların kuru göz semptomları sıklığının yaklaşık %17.7'dir. Kuru göz anket puan ortalaması 10.2±6.17 (min:2, max:24) olduğu belirlenmiştir. Göz problemlerinden birine sahip olan yaşlı bireylerin kuru göz anket puan ortalaması 23.88 ile anlamlı düzeyde daha yüksek bulunmuştur (p=.036). Göz ameliyatı geçirmiş bireylerin kuru göz semptomu yaşama derecesi hiç ameliyat geçirmeyenlere göre anlamlı düzeyde daha yüksek bulunmuştur (p=.040). Sonuç: Yaşlı bireylerde kuru göz semptomunun göz problemine sahip olma ve göz ameliyatı geçirme ile ilişkili olduğu belirlenmiştir.
