What is Dry Eye Disease?
The official definition of Dry Eye was carefully formed in 2017 at the Tear Film and Ocular Surface Society (TFOS) workshop which involved 150 dry eye experts from around the world.
The following definition was then shaped:
Dry eye is a multifactorial disease of the ocular surface characterized by a loss of homeostasis of the tear film and accompanied by ocular symptoms, in which tear film instability and hyperosmolarity, ocular surface inflammation and damage, and neurosensory abnormalities play etiological roles.
