Could you summarise what the focus of your session will be at 100% Optical?

The focus of the session will be a comprehensive understanding of dry eye disease (DED) treatment and management options. The session will discuss the differential diagnosis and treatment options for varying types of dry eye and how we diagnose the different, and perhaps the overlapping, types of dry eye cases.

What are some of the key messages you wish to highlight around the management and understanding of dry eye?

Early differential diagnosis and a long treatment and management plan is the key. Research in the area is progressing fast: stay informed and stay connected for novel treatments. With an aging UK population, we will see more dry eye patients than ever before.
