Analysis of the pathogenic factors and management of dry eye in ocular surface disorders [PDF]
, 2017 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,
