Preoperative OSD Algorithm to The Rescue

Dear Dr. Renukaprasad A R, Do preoperative diagnosis and treatment of dry eye disease (DED) or ocular surface disorder (OSD) help improve post-surgical outcomes? DED can alter the outcomes of corneal, cataract, and refractive surgery, resulting in poor visual activity and postoperative patient satisfaction.
