Results/Conclusion The statistical analysis program SPSS was relied on to analyse demographic data and information about patients. The mean age of the patients was 45.2±13.5, and results were found with a statistical correlation between ocular diseases in patients, where a high percentage of contract was found for 50 patients and 100 eyes. In addition, other abnormalities in the eye were found, including keratitis and blepharitis.
