Effect of nonisotonic solutions on tear film osmolality.
We found that the original osmolality of the tear film is regained rapidly subsequent to the installation of hypotonic artificial tears or other nonisotonic solutions. The minor irritation due to nonisotonicity and the increased tear volume both contribute to the increased turnover rate which in turn results in the short half-life (measured in seconds) of these solutions in the eye. Despite the...
متن کاملTear film dynamics in floppy eyelid syndrome.
PURPOSE Floppy eyelid syndrome (FES) presents nonspecific ocular surface irritation. The hypothesis for the current study was that one contributing factor is the abnormality in tear film dynamics. METHODS Sixteen patients with FES were consecutively examined. Tear film dynamics were evaluated by kinetic tear interference images, infrared thermometry, water evaporation rate, tear break-up time...
متن کاملAssessment of tear film dynamics: quantification approach.
The dynamics of the tear film are reviewed with specific reference to the biophysical aspects: distribution, turnover and elimination through evaporation, drainage, and absorption. The review concentrates on quantitative assessments and is confined to aspects of the dynamics that can be fully and directly measured. The techniques of fluorophotometry, fluorescein clearance, lacrimal scintigraphy...
متن کاملAssessment of Tear Film Optical Quality Dynamics.
PURPOSE To investigate tear film optical quality dynamics by analyzing the postblink temporal changes of objective scatter index (OSI). METHODS A total of 109 myopic subjects without symptoms of dry eye and 32 myopic subjects diagnosed with dry eye disease were recruited in this cross-sectional study. The right eye for each subject was analyzed. Serial measurements of OSI were performed for 2...
متن کاملMeniscal tear film fluid dynamics near Marx's line.
Extensive studies have explored the dynamics of the ocular surface fluid, though theoretical investigations are typically limited to the use of the lubrication approximation, which is not guaranteed to be uniformly valid a-priori throughout the tear meniscus. However, resolving tear film behaviour within the meniscus and especially its apices is required to characterise the flow dynamics where ...
