Abstract: Dry eye after cataract surgery

This is nothing more than a blurb... But there is so little out there on dry eye after cataract in mainstream peer reviewed journals that I'll take anything I can get. I would love to see the raw data to get any idea of the correlations between incision size, topical meds and severity/persistence of dry eye after surgery. (Any MD, or co-managing ODs out there that happen to have collected data to share?)

Cataract procedure is sometimes followed by dry eye symptoms. The dimensions of the incisions, topical medication and other manoeuvres are responsible for these phenomena. I tried to objective them by break-up-time (BUT) and Schirmer test. The favourable outcomes of artificial tears confirm this theory.
