DEBS – a unification theory for dry eye and blepharitis
For many years, blepharitis and dry eye disease have been thought to be two distinct diseases, and evaporative dry eye distinct from aqueous insufficiency. In this treatise, we propose a new way of looking at dry eye, both evaporative and insufficiency, as the natural sequelae of decades of chronic blepharitis. Dry eye is simply the late form and late manifestation of one disease, blepharitis. ...
متن کاملContact lenses and associated anterior segment disorders: dry eye disease, blepharitis, and allergy.
This article discusses the use of contact lenses in patients suffering from dry eye and ocular allergy. The diagnosis of dry eye is outlined along with the relationship between contact lenses, the tear film, and the ocular surface. A practical approach to the recognition and management of the dry eye patient wishing to wear contact lenses is presented. In addition, a consideration of a careful ...
متن کاملCluster analysis of patients with ocular surface disease, blepharitis, and dry eye.
OBJECTIVE To develop a classification system for blepharitis and dry eye based on a classification-tree model of a large group of subjects who were given a variety of objective physiologic tests. METHODS We evaluated 513 subjects, some healthy and some with blepharitis and dry eye,with tests for tear volume, tear flow, and tear turnover and the Schirmer test for dry eye. Meibomian gland funct...
متن کاملUnification and Grammatical Theory
This paper informally presents a new view of grammar that has emerged from a number of distinct but related lines of investigation in theoretical and computational linguistics. Under this view, many current linguistic theories-including Lexical-Functional Grammar (LFG), Generalized Phraae Structure Grammar (GPSG), Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG), and categorial grammar (CG)-fall wit...
متن کاملString Theory and Unification
The use of the AdS/CFT correspondence to arrive at quiver gauge field theories is discussed. An abelian orbifold with the finite group Zp can give rise to a nonsupersymmetric G = U(N) gauge theory with chiral fermions and complex scalars in different bi-fundamental representations of G. The precision measurements at the Z resonance suggest the values p = 12 and N = 3, and a unifications scale M...
