Popis: PurposeTo verify the International Chronic Ocular Graft-Versus-Host Disease (ICCGVHD) Group diagnostic criteria and establish an easy-to-use and reliable diagnosis model for quick identification of chronic oGVHD.MethodsThis study included 180 patients (355 eyes) who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) and visited the Peking University Third Hospital Cornea and Ocular Surface Disease Specialist Clinic from July 2020 to February 2021. The proportion of chronic oGVHD was 76.06% (279/355).ResultsFive complaints, including eye dryness, photophobia, foreign body sensation, eye redness, and burning sensation; six ophthalmic examinations, including Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) score, corneal fluorescein staining (CFS), tear break-up time (TBUT), Schirmer’s test score without anesthesia, conjunctival score, tear meniscus height, and non-ocular GVHD-involved organs were significantly different between patients with chronic oGVHD and control group (p
