Myopia is a global public health issue, particularly prevalent in China, with a rising trend in recent years. The increased use of computers, smartphones, and video display terminals has led to frequent dry eye symptoms, such as blinking, among myopic students. Studies have revealed a higher incidence of dry eye in myopic children compared to emmetropic children, significantly impacting their learning and quality of life. However, ophthalmologists have traditionally focused more on the prevention and control of myopia, often neglecting ocular surface health awareness in children. It is essential to understand the potential impact of myopia on dry eyes in children and whether there is a difference in dry eye prevalence. This article reviews the current state of research on childhood myopia-related dry eye, encompassing epidemiology, pathogenesis, and risk factors, aiming to provide clinical reference for intervention, prevention, and precise treatment of dry eyes in myopic children.
近视眼是一个全球性的公共卫生问题，尤其在我国，其患病率居高不下，并呈逐年攀升的趋势。近年来，随着计算机和智能手机的普及，儿童近视眼出现了瞬目等干眼症状的频繁发生。研究发现，近视眼儿童的干眼发病率高于正视眼儿童，严重影响了患儿的学习和生活质量。然而，眼科医师通常更注重近视眼的预防和控制，而对儿童眼表健康的关注相对不足，容易导致漏诊和误诊。因此，了解近视眼是否在儿童干眼中产生影响，以及在干眼患病率中是否有所区别，对于采取有效的临床干预和预防措施具有十分重要的意义。本文综述了近视眼儿童干眼的国内外研究现状、流行病学、发病机制以及相关危险因素，旨在为近视眼儿童干眼的干预预防和精准诊疗提供临床参考依据。.
