View from the BCLA: Invaluable dry eye research

The first UK unveiling of the clinical findings from the TFOS DEWS II report will be presented at the BCLA’s 40th anniversary Conference ­– informing eye care practitioners how to diagnose and manage dry eyes over the next decade.

The research will be presented by Associate Professor Jennifer Craig and Professor James Wolffsohn on the first day of the three-day conference in Liverpool this June.

The original Tear Film and Ocular Surface Society Dry Eye Workshop (DEWS; 2007) brought together researchers and clinicians who were experts in dry eye to inform the definition, diagnosis and management of the condition and better understand its epidemiology and pathophysiology.
