Development and validation of a new photographic scale to grade lid wiper epitheliopathy
Purpose: Lid wiper epitheliopathy (LWE) is a clinical sign that has been associated with dry eye disease (DED) and contact lens discomfort (CLD). This study describes the development, validation and graders’ preference of a new photographic scale for LWE,

SIGNIFICANCE Dry eye disease causes ocular pain, blurred vision, reduced visual quality of life, and reduced workplace performance. This disease is underreported and underdiagnosed despite being highly prevalent in optometric care. PURPOSE This study aimed to explore the vision‐related quality of life of patients with dry eye disease and the potential ...

An eye on the Shih Tzu dog: Ophthalmic examination findings and ocular surface diagnostics
Abstract Objective To characterize the ocular surface parameters and determine the prevalence of ocular pathology in Shih Tzu dogs. Animal Studied Fifty Shih Tzu dogs (28 male, 22 female). Procedures Each dog underwent a complete ophthalmic examination (recording any pathology) and a series of diagnostics, allowing for a 10 min‐interval between tests ...

Abstract Background Visual display terminal (VDT) use is a key risk factor for dry eye disease (DED). Visual display terminal (VDT) use reduces the blink rate and increases the number of incomplete blinks. However, the exact mechanisms causing DED development from VDT use have yet to be clearly described. Purpose The purpose of the study was to conduct

The association between visual display terminal use and dry eye: a review
Abstract Background Dry eye disease (DED) is a multifactorial disease of the tear film and ocular surface. It causes ocular symptoms, reduced quality of life and a considerable economic burden on society. Prolonged use of visual display terminals (VDTs) has been suggested as an important risk factor for DED.

Analysis of factors leading to lid wiper epitheliopathy.
Lid wiper epitheliopathy (LWE) has received more attention during the diagnosis and treatment of the dry eye. However, its causes and pathogenesis remain unclear. We aimed to explore the etiology of LWE by analyzing the association between the severity of LWE and different anatomical and tissue morphological examination characteristics using confocal ...
