Description
Dry Eye Disease (DED) used to be considered as an ocular disease associated with age and primarily women over 50. Though this remains to be true, there is no longer a “typical” patient with DED. Various ages and particularly those who live in a multi-screen world may be affected. Given the increasing prevalence of this condition and the association with autoimmune diseases, use of contact lenses, medication use and extensive screen time, the demographics of this disease are changing.
This program will examine DED, the importance of early recognition, effective management and treatment options.
