Abstract

Dry eye disease is multifactorial and complex with multiple contributing factors. At Dry Eye University we try to focus on some of the most common types and sub-types of dry eye disease and discuss strategies to recognize and address these to promote better overall control of the disease.  Allergies, exposure, and contact lens related dry eye are the focus of this excerpt from our program.
