Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Dry eye disease (DED) is a common chronic multifactorial condition of the ocular surface characterized by failure to produce high quality or sufficient amounts of tears to moisturize the eyes (1) DED can be categorized as "dry eye with reduced tear production (aqueous deficient) and dry eye with increased evaporation of the tear film known as the hyperevaporative type… Although 10% of individuals have aqueous deficient DED, more than 80% have either the hyperevaporative type related to meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), or a combination of
