Understanding Dry Eye Disease
Dry eye disease is a complex condition at the forefront of optometric research. According to the DEWS study, dry eye is defined as:
"Dry eye is a multifactorial disease of the ocular surface characterized by a loss of homeostasis of the tear film, and accompanied by ocular symptoms, in which tear film instability and hyperosmolarity, ocular surface inflammation and damage, and neurosensory abnormalities play etiological roles."
In simpler terms, dry eye disease affects our eyes due to changes in our tear film. This can lead to inflammation of the cornea, resulting in various uncomfortable ocular symptoms.
