Treatment of Dry Eye Disease (DED) in Asia: Strategies for Short Tear Film Breakup Time-Type DED
Pharmaceutics, 2023 Dry eye disease (DED) is a multifactorial disorder in which tear fluid homeostasis is lost, resulting in increased tear film osmolarity and ocular surface irritation.

Tear Film Breakup Time-Based Dry Eye Disease Detection Using Convolutional Neural Network
Neural Computing and ApplicationsDry eye disease (DED) is a chronic eye disease and a common complication among the world's population. Evaporation of moisture from tear film or a decrease in tear production leads to an unstable tear film which causes DED.

Reliability of a new modified tear breakup time method: introduction of dry tear breakup time [PDF]
Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology, 2015 lies on the misunderstanding of the expression 'replace' in the abstract of the article. Our intention in this study was not to replace the WBUT method completely with the DBUT method for diagnosing dry eye disease, because an AUROC curve of WBUT was less than that of DBUT.
