Abstract:Objective:
To evaluate the prevalence of dry eye disease (DED) in laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) candidates.
Methods:
A chart review of consecutive LASIK candidates who underwent full ocular surface work-up was performed, including ocular surface disease index (OSDI), noninvasive tests (noninvasive tear breakup time [ni-TBUT], tear meniscus height, lipid layer thickness, and meibography), and invasive tests (Schirmer test I, fluorescein T… Show more
