Abstract
Dry eye disease (DED) is a chronic condition of the ocular surface characterized by failure to produce sufficient amounts or optimal quality of tears to moisturize the eyes. Worldwide, ocular lubricants are used in the initial management of DED, but they do not address the underlying causes of the disease. Overall, current therapies either reduce ocular surface inflammation or stabilize the tear film, but currently, it is still not clear which medication is best for those who has aqueous deficient DED or evaporative DED. DED is on the spectrum of chronic inflammatory disorders, thus lifestyle changes, nutritional status assessment and correction along with medications aimed to reduce inflammation could be an effective strategy. «Holistic», personalized approach, might give the way for a new generation of clinical studies to provide more effective solutions for management of DED.
