Fast and accurate diagnosis relieves patient discomfort spares them from long-term effects on ocular surface. Many tests used in DED may be considered subjective as they rely experienced observer for image interpretation, resulting variations diagnosis. On hand, non-contact nature anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) device its rapid acquisition enable measurement tear meniscus parameter without reflex tearing. other hygrometer allows a rapid, safe, but also efficient, analysis associated with low costs repeatability procedure.
