Produktbeschreibung
Dry Eye Disease: A Clinical Handbook illuminates the translation of cutting-edge research on dry eye disease into practical situations, allowing clinical diagnosis and management of the condition using the latest evidence-based methods. It first presents research on the core pathophysiological features of dry eye disease, including tear film instability, hyperosmolarity, inflammation and ocular surface damage. Thereafter, it champions a patient-centered approach to dry eye management, emphasizing the necessity of classifying the ocular surface disease(s) most relevant to each case. History-taking, which also supports individualized approaches to dry eye disease, is given in-depth analysis. The book also offers an understanding of how modifiable risk factors may be contributing to dry eye disease, to determine mitigating strategies for each sufferer. Dry Eye Disease: A Clinical Handbook also presents research about disease distribution globally, including the role that key non-modifiable risk factors of age, sex and ethnicity play in its prevalence. It also describes the key tools used to monitor changes in patient symptoms over time and in response to treatment. Readers will discover methods of assessing the subtle signs associated with dry eye disease, and will learn a range of techniques (from simple to advanced) to foster patients' improvement in both the office and at home. This book will doubtless become sought after by medical professionals requiring both contemporary evidence and practical guidance to ameliorate their patients' suffering.
