Dry eye disease is a common condition that affects the eyes. It is caused by problems with
the tear film and the tear dynamics. Dry eye can be caused by an increase in the amount of …

Dry eye disease (DED) is a chronic multifactorial ocular surface disease mainly caused by
the instability of tear film, characterized by a series of ocular discomforts and even visual …

Introduction Dryness symptoms in soft contact lens (SCL) wearers are common, especially at
the end of the day, and are the most common reason for discontinuing wear. Areas covered …

Purpose To investigate the roles of neural adaptation and sensitization in contact lens
discomfort (CLD). Methods Cooling stimuli (20° C) were applied to the cornea in a group …

Purpose With soft-contact-lens wear, evaporation of the pre-lens tear film affects the
osmolarity of the post-lens tear film and this can introduce a hyperosmotic environment at …

Purpose The health benefits of silicone hydrogel lens materials and a daily replacement
modality have been demonstrated in previous studies; however, existing planned …

Purpose The study aimed to determine changes detected by noncontact meibography and
noninvasive break-up time test (NIBUT) in individuals with regular use of soft contact lenses …

Purpose To determine whether localized hyperosmotic spikes on the pre-lens tear film
(PrLTF) due to tear break up results in hyperosmotic spikes on the ocular surface during soft …

The contribution of different physical effects to tear breakup (TBU) in subjects with no self-
reported history of dry eye are quantified. An automated system using a convolutional neural …

Objectives: Owing to widespread mask use during the COVID-19 pandemic and clinical
reports tying mask use with dryness, this study endeavors to determine if mask use is linked …
