Dry eyes are a frequent cause of ocular discomfort, unstable and poor quality vision and also of more significant eye pathology. They can occur at any age but appear to be more common in association with menopause. In addition, dry eyes can be associated with a number of systemic conditions, for which a presenting symptom may be that of dry eyes.
This talk will discuss the aetiology and diagnosis of dry eyes and management of the condition from the point of view of the non-ophthalmologist.
