Dear colleagues!
I am interested in the phenomenon of tearing in patients with dry eye diseases. It is believed that tearing may be a symptom of dry eye disease in its early stages.
What is the pathogenesis of this condition? Is it a symptom of evaporative dry eye disease? Is it caused by corneal sensitivity changes? Any papers explaining this phenomenon and its frequency?
I will be happy if you would add your comments.
Kind regards,
Dr. Vasily Yartsev
