This study tests an eye drop to help stabilize the natural tear film on the surface of the eye. It may help people who have normal tear production but could benefit from better tear film stability.
This study evaluates a new computer-assisted imaging system that uses specialized microscopy to help diagnose dry eye disease. Researchers need both healthy volunteers and people with dry eye symptoms to test how well the system works.
This research study aims to develop better ways to diagnose and manage dry eye disease in people who need cataract surgery. If you have dry eye or not, your participation will help create better care plans.
This study tests whether RCI001, a new eye drop treatment, can help people with dry eye disease. If you've had dry eye symptoms for at least 6 months and are interested in trying a new treatment, this trial may be for you.
This trial tests whether low-level light therapy can improve dry eye disease by measuring changes in tear proteins. It may help people with chronic dry eye who are interested in a non-drug treatment.
This trial tests if using a blink reminder app (BlinkEasy) can help reduce damage to the oil glands in your eyelids that keep eyes moist. It is for people aged 18 to 40 who use screens at least 4 hours a day and have mild to severe dry eye symptoms.
