Dry eye-related ocular surface examination is very important in the diagnosis and treatment of dry eye disease. With the recent advances in science and technology, dry eye examination techniques have progressed rapidly, which has greatly improved dry eye diagnoses and treatment. However, clinically, confusion remains about which examination to choose, how to ensure the repeatability of the examination, and how to accurately interpret the examination results. In this review, we systematically evaluate previous examinations of dry eye, analyze the latest views and research hotspots, and provide a reference for the diagnosis and management of dry eye.

Purpose/objectives: Radiotherapy (RT) is curative for the majority of patients with primary indolent orbital adnexal lymphoma (IOAL). Some reports suggest inferior outcomes for bilateral IOAL, leading to uncertainty regarding optimal management for this presentation. This multicentre, retrospective study evaluated long-term outcomes of bilateral IOAL patients treated with radiotherapy alone.

Clinical Relevance: The tear break-up time (BUT) test is important in diagnosing and monitoring tear film stability, and understanding potential changes in tear film dynamics during repeated measurements could improve the accuracy and reliability of the test in clinical practice.
Background: The study aimed to examine the changes in BUT value caused by subsequent measurements made in BUT test.
Methods: A total of 120 female participants were divided into groups (30 individuals each).

The objective of this study was to investigate the protective effects and related mechanisms of lactoferrin and HIF-1α on dry eye syndrome (DED) in mice. The expression levels of lactoferrin and HIF-1α in tears of DED patients and normal controls were detected. A DED mouse model received lactoferrin (50 mg/kg dissolved in 2 mL PBS) or DMOG (40 mg/kg dissolved in 2 mL PBS) orally daily for 28 days.
