Analysis of the pathogenic factors and management of dry eye in ocular surface disorders [PDF]
The tear film represents the interface between the eye and the environment. The alteration of the delicate balance that regulates the secretion and distribution of the tear film determines the dry eye (DE) syndrome. Despite having a multifactorial origin,

A predictive model for early diagnosis of keratoconus
Background The diagnosis of keratoconus in the early stages of the disease is necessary to initiate an early treatment of keratoconus. Furthermore, to avoid possible refractive surgery that could produce ectasias.
