What is the incidence and clinical significance of dry eye disease in patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors? A systematic review and meta‐analysis of ocular immune‐related adverse events

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have transformed cancer therapy but may cause immune‐related adverse events (irAEs), including dry eye disease (DED). This study aimed to quantify the incidence of ICI‐associated DED and to evaluate factors contributing to variability across studies.
