Description
Shiyang Niu and coauthors grade in 2026 dry eye education videos on the Chinese social platform Xiaohongshu. The public increasingly learns eye care from short videos, yet quality by uploader type had not been measured. The team sampled the first two hundred videos returned for the Chinese term for dry eye.
After exclusions, 136 videos remained, most from non-medical individual accounts. Content leaned toward lifestyle tips and treatment, while definitions and diagnosis were rarely covered. Videos from non-medical uploaders carried incorrect or misleading claims far more often than those from medical users. Standard quality tools were applied to judge clarity and reliability for viewers.
