Methods: This cross-sectional study administered a descriptive survey to 184 college students across Korea. Data collection was conducted from August 27 to 28, 2024, using an online survey platform (Google Forms). The self-reported survey comprised the Health-Related Quality of Life Instrument with 8 Items scale, the Dry Eye Questionnaire 5, and the Ocular Surface Disease Index. Data analysis was performed using SPSS version 27.0. Results: The participants had a mean age of 21.37 (standard deviation 1.96) years. Regression analysis identified sleep satisfaction, vision-related functions, and dry eye symptoms as statistically significant predictors of QoL, accounting for 18.4% of the variance (F = 14.71, p &lt; .001). Dry eye symptoms were significantly influenced by the use of artificial tears, vision-related functions, and environmental factors, which accounted for 41.3% of the variance (F = 43.93, p &lt; .001). Additionally, significant determinants of ocular surface disease included the use of vision correction tools, the presence of ophthalmic diseases, sleep satisfaction, and dry eye symptoms. These factors explained 45.7% of the variance, confirming the model's robustness (F = 31.84, p &lt; .001). Conclusion: It is necessary to identify strategies to alleviate dry eye syndrome in college students and develop comprehensive prevention and management programs to improve their QoL.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.7586\/jkbns.24.036","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,16]],"date-time":"2025-02-16T23:06:06Z","timestamp":1739747166000},"page":"72-84","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.7586\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Factors affecting dry eye syndrome and quality of life among college students in Korea: a cross-sectional study"],"prefix":"10.7586","volume":"27","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1406-1149","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Mi-Kyoung","family":"Cho","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0000-8270-819X","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Seonhwa","family":"Yoon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-0811-9924","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Yoojin","family":"Cho","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-6842-5291","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Younhye","family":"Jun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0007-4685-2419","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Jiseon","family":"Choi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-8265-2216","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Minyoung","family":"Ryu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-1126-1091","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Myeong Jin","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0000-9896-6054","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Ga Hyun","family":"Sung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"4406","reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.14479\/jkoos.2022.27.2.145"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.17548\/ksaf.2022.03.30.269"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5392\/JKCA.2021.21.11.375"},{"volume-title":"Characteristics and use behavior of OTT service users.
