Lid wiper epitheliopathy, ocular surface and tear film in symptomatic contact lens wearers

Acta Ophthalmologica, 2008
Abstract Purpose Lid wiper epitheliopathy (LWE) as well as lid parallel conjunctival folds (LIPCOF) are related to dry eye symptoms in contact lens weares and are thought to be caused by mechanical forces during blinking. This study investigates whether any correlations are detectable between LWE and LIPCOF and the ocular surface and tear film in soft ...

Lid-wiper epitheliopathy and dry-eye symptoms in contact lens wearers.

The CLAO journal : official publication of the Contact Lens Association of Ophthalmologists, Inc, 2003
To evaluate whether dry-eye symptoms are associated with epitheliopathy of that portion of the upper eyelid marginal conjunctiva-the lid wiper-that wipes the ocular, or contact lens surface, during blinking.Subjects were divided into two groups based on the presence or absence of dry-eye symptoms. The lid wiper of asymptomatic (n=75) and symptomatic (n=

[Preliminary observation the correlation between lid-wiper epitheliopathy and dry eye].

[Zhonghua yan ke za zhi] Chinese journal of ophthalmology, 2010
To investigate the prevalence of lid-wiper epitheliopathy (LWE) and risk factors in dry eye patients.One hundred forty-one patients (141 eyes) were recruited in Peking University First Hospital from September 2006 to March 2007. These patients were divided into three groups based on the dry eye symptoms and the results of break up time, Schirmer I test

Lid wiper epitheliopathy and ocular surface dysfunction in benign essential blepharospasm before and after botulinum toxin-A injection

International Ophthalmology
To investigate ocular surface dysfunction in patients with benign essential blepharospasm (BEB) by evaluating lid wiper epitheliopathy (LWE) and ocular surface parameters and to compare these findings with those of normal and dry eye controls. Additionally, we aimed to assess the impact of botulinum toxin (BTX-A) injection on ocular surface parameters ...
