Dear Dr. Renukaprasad A R, - Dry eye disease (DED) is a global health problem and the leading cause of optometry and ophthalmology clinic visits.
- Approximately 30-70% of DED patients may suffer from symptoms of both aqueous-deficient dry eye (ADDE) and evaporative dry eye (EDE). Further, more than 80% of clinical cases fall into the EDE or ADDE+EDE types, while 10% are solely ADDE.
- Hence, eye care practitioners must choose proper artificial tears for better DED and its subtypes' management.
- Did you know that lipid-containing artificial tears with propylene glycol-hydroxypropyl guar (PG-HPG) are more effective and well-tolerated in various subtypes of DED?
Read this Infographic to understand the efficacy and safety of phospholipid nanoemulsion-based PG-HPG lubricant eye drops in managing various subtypes of DED. |
