Abstract
An overview of the dry eye syndrome and its medical and surgical management has been presented. It is apparent that any single treatment is generally ineffective and that a combination of therapeutic modalities is required for success. The Experimental Slow Release Artificial Tear Insert (Ocusert) shows the most promise for a future solution.
