Role of topical and systemic immunosuppression in aqueous-deficient dry eye disease [PDF]
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2023 Immunosuppression in aqueous-deficient dry eye disease (ADDE) is required not only to improve the symptoms and signs but also to prevent further progression of the disease and its sight-threatening sequelae.

Categorization of the Aqueous Deficient Dry Eye by a Cut-Off Criterion of TMH Measured with Tearscope [PDF]
Life, 2022 A decrease of the Tear Meniscus Height (TMH) has been proposed as a useful indicator for Aqueous Deficient Dry Eye (ADDE) categorization. The present study aimed to calculate a TMH cut-off criterion for the categorization or severity assessment of ADDE ...

Effect of Punctal Occlusion on Blinks in Eyes with Severe Aqueous Deficient Dry Eye [PDF]
Diagnostics, 2023 Punctal occlusion (PO) is considered to improve both tear-film instability and increased friction during blinking and may consequently affect blinks. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of PO on blinks.

Aqueous-deficient dry eye disease: Preferred practice pattern guidelines on clinical approach, diagnosis, and management [PDF]
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2023 Dry eye disease (DED) is a broad term that includes a diverse group of clinical disorders. Aqueous-deficient dry eye (ADDE), a subtype of DED, is characterized by decreased tear production by the lacrimal gland.
