Eye Surgeries and Dry Eye Disease

Dear Dr. Renukaprasad A R,
How do you manage cases of post-operative DED?
  • Latrogenic interventions, such as eye surgery and contact lenses, can lead to DED by disrupting the eye surface and destabilizing the tear film.
  • This may result in compromised tear function after procedures for strabismus, cataract, ptosis, PRK, and LASIK surgeries, causing dry eye symptoms.
Check out this engaging animated infographic that sheds light on the various determinants of CVS.
Highlights - 
  • Post-LASIK dry eye 
  • Cataract and DED 
  • Lid surgeries and DED 
  • Managing post-operative DED
Abbreviations
DED: Dry eye disease; LASIK: Laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis; PRK: Photorefractive keratectomy

Sparking Tears of Relief: Intranasal Neurostimulation in Dry Eye Management

Dear Dr. Renukaprasad A R,
Do you know that advancements in intranasal neurostimulation can help develop novel dry eye disease (DED) therapies in the future?
Very few of these treatments seek to stimulate the lacrimal glands and cells to secrete more natural tears instead of focusing on reducing the DED symptoms.
The delivery of tiny electrical currents to the anterior ethmoidal nerve activates reflex and upregulates the body's natural tear secretion system, making intranasal neurostimulation a promising new treatment for DED.
Here's an interesting article about a new promising approach to treating and alleviating DED symptoms by intranasal tear neurostimulation.
