Abstract

Aims: Professional polo-water athletes are exposed to chlorine in the swimming pool. Chlorine is an irritant agent, so polo-water athletes commonly experience irritative eye symptoms. Hyaluronic acid and glycuronate enoxolone exert anti-inflammatory and cytoprotective activity. Therefore, the present practical experience explored the efficacy and safety of eye drops containing both components.

Material and methods: The current study included 59 professional polo-water athletes. The ocular surface disease index (OSDI) and dry eye-related quality of life (QoL) score (DEQS) questionnaires were used to assess the efficacy. Subjects took the eye drops for one month. The study consisted of a baseline visit (T0) and an end-treatment one (T1).

Results: Athletes experienced a significant improvement in symptoms and QoL as assessed by OSDI and DEQS scores (p < 0.001 for both).

Conclusion: The present study showed that professional polo-water athletes frequently experience ocular discomfort associated with swimming pool attendance. Eye drops with hyaluronic acid and glycuronate enoxolone can significantly relieve eye symptoms and improve the quality of life in these athletes.

专业水球运动员的眼部不适:局部透明质酸和糖醛酸依诺洛酮的实践经验。

目的:职业水球运动员在游泳池中接触氯。氯是一种刺激剂，所以水球运动员通常会出现眼睛刺激性症状。透明质酸和糖醛酸依诺洛酮具有抗炎和细胞保护作用。因此，目前的实践经验探讨了含这两种成分的滴眼液的有效性和安全性。材料与方法:本研究包括59名职业水球运动员。采用眼表疾病指数(OSDI)和干眼相关生活质量(QoL)评分(DEQS)问卷评估疗效。受试者服用眼药水一个月。该研究包括基线访问(T0)和治疗结束访问(T1)。结果:通过OSDI和DEQS评分评估，运动员的症状和生活质量均有显著改善(p <两者均为0.001)。结论:本研究显示，专业水球运动员经常出现与游泳有关的眼部不适。含透明质酸和糖醛酸依诺洛酮的滴眼液可以显著缓解这些运动员的眼部症状，提高生活质量。
