Abstract
The clinically diagnosed dry eye generally has an unstable tear film and changes in the corneal epithelium but, not necessarily, hyposecretion of tears. In normal asymptomatic eyes we found, using a noninvasive technique, a significant relation between precorneal tear film stability and tear production rates (TPR''s).This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
