Dry eye disease (DED) is a growing public health concern affecting the quality of life and visual function, with a significant socio-economic impact. It’s characterized by a breakdown of homeostasis, which causes tear film instability, hyperosmolarity, and ocular surface inflammation. Ocular surface disorders are also clinically very important to manage especially in terms of visual acuity. With a better understanding of the pathophysiology and etiology of DE disease (DED), the disease process can be managed and treated more meticulously.
