The latest definition of Dry Eye Disease (DED) from the Tear Film and Ocular Surface Society DEW III report is that:
“Dry eye is a multifactorial, symptomatic disease characterized by a loss of homeostasis of the tear film and/or ocular surface, in which tear film instability and hyperosmolarity, ocular surface inflammation and damage, and neurosensory abnormalities are etiological factors”
We use the latest techniques and technology to assess the composition of your tears and the status of the tear producing structures of the eye. We look for signs of ocular inflammation.
Armed with this information we decide on a treatment plan for you.
