Purpose:
|
To estimate the prevalence of Floppy Eyelid Syndrome (FES) and determine the associated factors in a representative sample of Iranian adult population aged 45-69 years.
|
|
Methods:
|
The data was according to second phase of Shahroud Eye Cohort Study, performed in 2014 with 4737 participants aged 45-69 years. Diagnosis of FES was made based on the clinical judgment of the ophthalmologist during ocular examinations. The percentage and confidence intervals (CI) of the prevalence of FES was reported and the associated factors were analyzed using simple and multiple logistic regression models.
|
|
Results:
|
In this study, 11.3% of the participants (6.7% of men and 14.6% of women) had FES in at least one eye. The prevalence of FES decreased with age. FES grade 1, 2 and 3 was observed in 72.8%, 21.6%, and 0.6% of the participants, respectively. While the relationship between age and FES was not significant in men (OR=0.98, 95% CI: 0.95-1.01), the odds of FES decreased significantly with increase in age in women (OR= 0.94, 95% CI: 0.92-0.96). Body mass index ≥25 (OR= 1.65, 95% CI: 1.25-2.18), Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (OR=1.47, 95% CI: 1.18-1.81) and hypertension (OR=1.84, 95% CI: 1.46-2.31) had significant association with FES.

|
Conclusion:
|
The prevalence of FES was 11.3% and 72.8% of the participants had grade 1 FES. Significant associations were found between FES and other eyelid disorders. FES was more prevalent in younger women.
