COUNTRY SITES CONTACTS MEDIA R&D EYE DISORDERS COMMITMENT COMPANY EYE DISORDERS > OCULAR SURFACE DISORDERS The ocular surface is the outer part of the eye anterior segment and consists of the conjunctiva and the cornea, together with elements such as the lacrimal gland, lacrimal drainage apparatus and associated eyelid structures. This part of the eye has unique properties and is associated with special physiological mechanisms, such as tear production and drainage. The ocular surface may be subject to specific disorders, such as dry eye (1) and corneal lesions (2). The correct hygiene of the periocular area (3) is essential for the health of the ocular surface and of the eye as a whole. Dry Eye Dry Eye Disease (DED) is one of the most common eye conditions worldwide and a primary reason for visits to the eye doctor. DED is a multifactorial disease that affects the tear film and the ocular surface and causes symptoms of discomfort, visual disturbances and instability of the tear film, with potential damage to the ocular surface, accompanied by an increase in tear film osmolarity and ocular surface inflammation (definition by DEWS II - 2017).
