Understanding Preoperative DED Assessments for Optimal Post-surgery Outcomes

Dear Dr. Renukaprasad A R,
Are preoperative assessments necessary for managing post-surgery dry eye disease (DED)?
A dry eye after refractive surgery can also impact the postoperative quality of vision and life and therefore needs particular attention and care. Proper preoperative evaluation for DED can go a long way in post-surgery care.
Watch this exciting video to get more insights into preoperative DED investigation, corneal nerve damage analysis during surgery, algorithmic approach for risk assessment, and treatment of DED post-refractive surgery.

Highlights:
  • Etiology of post-refractive surgery DED
  • Preoperative evaluation of DED patients
  • Advanced diagnostic tools for evaluation
  • DED management with an algorithmic approach

Tears of Joy: Unlock the Secret to Thicker Tear Film with Gel Lubricants!

Dear Dr. Renukaprasad A R,
Can lubricant viscosity contribute to the extended ocular residence time?
Dry eye disease (DED) treatment is based on the severity of the disease. Tear retention, tear stimulation, topical or systemic anti-inflammatory medication, and environmental approaches are strategies for effective DED management. However, frequent instillation of lubricants is necessary due to their short residence time on the ocular surface. Ocular lubricants in gel form are therefore preferred.
Here's an infographic that proves the impact of three different formulations of gel lubricants on the tear film thickness.

Highlights:
  • Etiology and pathophysiology of DED
  • Common problems associated with lubricants to treat DED
  • DED treatment techniques and therapy-related issues
  • Effect of various lubricant eye gels on tear film thickness

Using Functional Visual Acuity to Detect Dry Eyes

Dear Dr. Renukaprasad A R,
Do you know that dry eye patients suffer from reduced visual acuity during prolonged gazing?

In the context of current environmental and lifestyle changes brought about by excessive digital screen usage, contact lens wear, and aging, dry eye disease (DED) has become one of the most often observed ocular diseases.
The most miniature retinal picture that a patient can see is referred to as visual acuity.
By tracking the temporal variations of subjective visual acuity, functional visual acuity (FVA) enables the diagnosis of visual disruption associated with tear film instability in dry eye patients.

Here's an interesting video that provides riveting insights on FVA as an effective diagnostic tool for DED.
