Management Strategies for Evaporative Dry Eye Disease and Future Perspective
Dry eye disease (DED) is a common disorder that remains challenging from a clinical perspective. Unstable or deficient tear film is a major factor contributing to DED and the inability to resolve the loss of tear film homeostasis that accompanies DED can result in a vicious circle of inflammation and treatment-refractory disease. Recently recognized as

Mouse models in studies on the etiology of evaporative dry eye disease. [PDF]
Evaporative dry eye disease (DED) is a common ocular condition impacting the quality of life of millions of patients worldwide. The etiology of evaporative DED is related to dysfunction of meibomian glands (MGs), resulting in suboptimal yield or lipid composition of secreted meibum.

Comparison of non-pharmaceutical treatments for evaporative dry eye: a randomised controlled study protocol [PDF]
Introduction The lipid layer of the tear film is critical to maintaining the integrity of the tear film and absence in the tear film lipid layer (TFLL) is one of the main causes of evaporative dry eye (EDE) in dry eye disease patients, resulting in ...

Lipid-based eye drop formulations for the management of evaporative dry eyes
Dry eye disease is a progressive prevalent ocular surface disorder that arises from various factors and is characterized by insufficient quality and/or quantity of tears. The underlying pathophysiology is intricate and can progress to chronic, difficult-to-treat conditions.

Prevalence and Association of Meibomian Gland Dysfunction with Dry Eye Severity from a Tertiary Care Rural Hospital in Central Gujarat: A Cross-sectional Study [PDF]
Introduction: Meibomian glands are holocrine meibum secreting glands driving out the oil from the orifice. It forms the outermost lipid layer of the tear film which prevents overflow of tears because of its hydrophobic properties and reduces their ...

Screening Evaporative Dry Eyes Severity Using an Infrared Image [PDF]
Background. Dry eye disease (DED) is a multifactorial and one of the most common problems treated in an ophthalmic outpatient clinic. Due to the variability in presentation, diagnosis of DED consists of a combination of subjective and objective clinical tests.
