对美国马里兰州切萨皮克湾的838名水工进行了紫外线照射与角膜疾病之间的关系调查。通过结合详细的职业史与实验室和现场测量来计算个体眼暴露。140例发现翼状胬肉，162例发现气候飞沫性ketatopathy， 642例发现pinguecula。Logistic回归分析显示，翼状胬肉和气候性角膜液滴病与较宽波段紫外线暴露（UV- b, 290 ~ 320 nm; A1, 320 ~ 340 nm; A2, 340 ~ 400 nm）有显著相关性，但与斑马病的相关性较弱。戴帽子或眼镜等简单的措施可以保护眼睛，并可能减少因紫外线辐射而导致的pypypyum和气候飞沫性角膜病变的数量。
The association between exposure to UV radiation and corneal disease was investigated in 838 watermen who work on the Chesapeake Bay, Maryland (USA). Individual ocular exposure was calculated by combining a detailed occupational history with laboratory and field measurements. Pterygium was found in 140, climatic droplet ketatopathy in 162, and pinguecula in 642. Logistic regression analysis showed that pterygium and climatic droplet keratopathy were significantly associated with a broad band of UV radiation exposure (UV-B, 290 to 320 nm; A1, 320 to 340 nm; and A2, 340 to 400 nm), but the association with pinguecula was weaker. Simple measures such as wearing a hat or spectacles protect the eye and could potentially reduce the amount of pyterygium and climatic droplet keratopathy attributable to UV radiation exposure.
