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.

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.
