Dear Dr. Renukaprasad A R, Do you know what measures should be taken for the accurate and prompt diagnosis of ocular surface dysfunction (OSD) in cataract surgery patients that can help achieve satisfactory outcomes? OSD can cause tear film and ocular surface abnormalities, which can worsen after cataract surgery. Often, OSD remains undiagnosed in cataract surgery candidates as their symptoms and typical signs of OSD do not coincide well. Therefore, the appropriate and timely diagnosis of OSD is vital for adequate cataract surgery results. Watch this clinical round-up to understand more about the prevalence and importance of OSD in cataract surgery evaluation. Highlights:- OSD can pre-exist and remain undiagnosed in cataract surgery patients.
- OSD tends to worsen post-cataract surgery.
- Competent objective testing measures should be taken for OSD evaluation before surgery.
- Appropriate and well-timed management of OSD can significantly improve the surgery after-effect.
