Human Tear-Film Evaporation Rates from Infrared Ocular-Surface Cooling and Fluorescein Breakup

Year: 2016

Type: article

Abstract: Purpose : Tear-lm evaporation is critical for maintaining anterior-eye health and comfortable contact-lens wear.For the rst time, we devise a quantitative method for ascertaining in-vivo tear evaporation rates (TERs) from simultaneous measurement of transient corneal surface cooling and uorescein breakup.
