Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2011
based on data from the largest studies of dry eye to date - the Women's Health Study (WHS) and the Physicians' Health Study (PHS) - and other studies, it has been estimated that about 3.23 million women and 1.68 million men, for a total of 4.91 million Americans aged ≥ 50 years, have dry eye. Tens of millions more have less severe symptoms and probably

Dry eye is a common yet complex condition. Intrinsic and extrinsic factors can cause dysfunction of the lids, lacrimal glands, meibomian glands, ocular surface cells, or neural network. These problems would ultimately be expressed at the tear film-ocular surface interface.

Dry eve disease is characterized by symptoms, ocular surface damage, reduced tear film stability, and tear hyperosmolarity. There are also inflammatory components. These features can be identified by various kinds of diagnostic tests (symptom questionnaires, ocular surface staining, tear break-up time, and osmometry), although there may not be a direct

The present review is of dry eye syndrome, an entity caused by various conditions that lead to tear film abnormalities. The tear film consists of aqueous, mucin, proteins and lipids. Dry eye syndrome may be caused by local ocular disorders or systemic diseases.

To establish accurate measurement of tear production in the diagnosis and monitoring of dry eye.Reexamination of the Schirmer test indicated that the rate of tear secretion decreases with advancing age. We measured the noninvasive tear film break-up time (NIBUT) in normal and dry eye patients with our original apparatus.

The most widely used therapy for dry eye disease is tear replacement by topical artificial tears. Punctal occlusion to prevent the drainage of natural or artificial tears is the most common non-pharmacological treatment. These and other traditional therapies for dry eye disease are only palliative, however, as they replace or conserve the tears without
