Tear film stability can be assessed via a number of tools designed for clinical as well as
research purposes. These techniques can give us insights into the tear film, and allow …

PURPOSE. Previous measurements of tear-film thickness in vivo are limited and cannot be
easily applied in a clinical setting. A novel technique to measure tear-film thickness indirectly …

Purpose. The purpose of this study was to develop a novel, quantitative measurement of tear
film breakup dynamics (TBUD) to study the phenomenon of tear breakup in dry eye and …

Importance Tear film breakup time assessment is an integral component of dry eye
evaluation. To our knowledge, the comparative discriminative ability of the noninvasive …

The stability of the tear film plays an important role in the optical quality of the eye. Various
methods have been developed to quantify the contribution of the tear film to optical quality …

Purpose.: To evaluate tear film stability in patients with tear dysfunction and an
asymptomatic control group by using the novel, noninvasive Tear Stability Analysis System …

The tear film is a nourishing, lubricating and protecting layer that bathes the ocular surface. It
is continuously replenished through cycles of production and elimination via evaporation …

Purpose. To compare non-invasive break-up time (NIBUT) when measured with the
Tearscope-Plus™ and the Oculus® Keratograph 5M, and to compare lipid layer thicknesses …

Tear film breakup (BU) is an important aspect of dry eye disease, as a cause of ocular
aberrations, irritation and ocular surface inflammation and disorder. Additionally …

PURPOSE: To evaluate and compare the tear-film dynamics in normal eyes and in eyes with
mild dry-eye symptoms using a new noninvasive optical method based on a double-pass …
