ÖZET
Amaç: Pterjium ve pinguekulası olan hastaları; yaş, cinsiyet, semptom varlığı ve meslek grupları açısından değerlendirmek. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışmaya 1.022 hastanın 2.044 gözü dâhil edildi. Hastalara tam bir oftalmolojik muayene yapıldı. Pterjium ve pinguekula varlı ğı, yaş, cinsiyet, meslek ve semptom varlığı not edildi. İstatistiksel analiz için Fisher'in kesin ki-kare testi kullanıldı. Bulgular: Hastaların yaş ortalaması 44±17,14 yıl (yaş aralığı 13-94), 455'i (%44,52) kadın, 567'si (%55,48) erkek idi. Hastaların 124'ünde (%12,13) pterjium, 898'inde (%87,87) pinguekula, gözlerin 173'ünde (%8,46) pterjium, 1.697'sinde (%83,02) pinguekula izlendi. Kadın ve erkekler arasında, sağ ve sol gözler arasında pterjium ya da pinguekula görülme sıklığı bakımından istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark yoktu (p>0,05 hepsi için). Pterjiumu olan gözlerin 61'i (%35,26), pinguekulası olan gözlerin 478'i (%28,16) semptomatik olup aradaki fark istatistiksel olarak anlamlı değildi (p=0,290). Pterjiumu olan hastaların 49'unda (%39,51), pinguekulası olanların 799'unda (%88,97) bilateral tutulum vardı (p<0,001). Hastaların 343'ü (%33,56) çiftçi, 298'i (%29,15) ev hanımı, 201'i (%19,66) işçi, 61'i (%5,96) öğrenci, 52'si (%5,08) şoför, 44'ü (%4,30) memur, 11'i (%1,07) esnaf, 7'si (%0,68) kuaför, 3'ü (%0,29) terzi, 1'i ('0,97) ressam ve 1'i ('0,97) müzisyen idi. Sonuç: Pinguekulanı n bilateralitesi daha yüksektir. Pinguekulanın semptom oluşturma sıklığı istatistiksel olarak anlamlı olmasa da pterjiuma göre daha düşüktür Pterjiumun orta ve ileri yaşlarda sıklığı görece artmaktadır.

ABSTRACT
Objective: To evaluate patients with pterygium and pinguecula in terms of age, gender, presence of symptom and occupational groups. Material and Methods: The study consist of 2,044 eyes of 1,022 patients. A detailed ophthalmic examination was performed. Presence of pterygium and pinguecula, age, gender, occupation and presence of symptom were noted. Chi-square and Fisher's exact tests were used for statistical analysis. Results: The mean age of the patients was 44±17.14 years (range 13-94), 455 (44.52%) were female and 567 (55.48%) were male. Pterygium was observed in 124 (12.13%) of the patients and pinguecula in 898 (87.87%). Pterygium was observed in 173 (8.46%) of all eyes and pinguecula in 1,697 (83.02%). There was no statistically significant difference between male and female, right and left eye in terms of frequency of pterygium or pinguecula (p>0.05 for all). Sixty one (35.26%) of eyes with pterygium and 478 (28.16%) of eyes with pinguecula were symptomatic and the difference was not statistically significant (p=0.290). Bilateral pterygium and pinguecula were observed in 49 (39.51%) patients and 799 (88.97%) (p<0.001). The occupational groups of the patients are as follows; 343 (33.56%) farmers, 298 (29.15%) housewives, 201 (19.66%) workers, 61 (5.96%) students, 52 (5.08%) drivers, 44 (4.30%) civil servants, 11 (1.07%) tradesmen, 7 (0.68%) hairdressers, 3 (0.29%) tailors, 1 (0.97') painter and 1 (0.97') musician). Conclusion: Pinguecula has higher bilaterality. The frequency of symptom of pinguecula is lower than in pterygium, although not statistically significant. However, the frequency of pterygium increases in middle and older ages.
