The severity of dry eye condition can be determined through various clinical tests such as the tear film break-up time (TBUT), Schirmer's test, and ocular surface staining. Each of these tests respectively measures tear production, rate of tear evaporation, and any damage to the ocular surface. The Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) is a subjective tool that can also be used to evaluate dry eye symptoms. To address the root cause of dry eye, consider oral treatments like TheraLife's All In One Dry Eye Starter Kit. Regular visits to your eye doctor can help monitor the improvement of your symptoms.
