A second Dry Eye WorkShop is expected to take place this fall, and the Tear Film and Ocular Surface Society is now accepting applications for participants.

Ten years after launching the original Dry Eye WorkShop (DEWS), the Tear Film and Ocular Surface Society (TFOS) is planning the sequel, DEWS II. According to the organization, the workshop will update the definition, classification and diagnosis of dry eye disease; assess the etiology, mechanism, distribution and global impact of dry eye; and address management and therapy.
