Useful video on American Health Journal with explanations and summarising common dry eye treatment solutions: blepharitis, demodex, punctal plugs, wraparound glasses, diet and oil supplements to improve meibom, steroid eyedrops, Restasis, action of antibiotics or antibacterials.
(Omits systemic causes, lenses, more severe cases. Docs have mixed views on meibomian gland probing and Lipiflow. Also, demodex. But maybe dermatophyte aetiologies are still overlooked in MGD. If suspected, search PubMed on 'Tseng demodex' for his findings in Miami.)
It would be nice to see good docs doing more public service information. What do you think?
