Abstract

In recent years, in conditions of increased work with gadgets and computers, the prevalence of dry eye syndrome has increased dramatically. The presented article is devoted to the modern diagnosis of dry eye syndrome.25 patients (50 eyes) participated in the study, which was conducted at the ophthalmological center of Astana Vision Pavlodar LLP in Pavlodar. Of these, 7 patients after laser vision correction, 4 patients suffering from myopia, wore contact lenses, locally applied medications for the treatment of dry eye syndrome. The examination included a Schirmer test, a tear film rupture time test (NIBUT, VRSP), filling out the questionnaire «Ocular Surface Disease Index» (OSDI) and determining the height of the lacrimal meniscus.The author of the article concluded that noninvasive research methods used for the diagnosis of SSG are more acceptable, since they do not violate the integrity of the tear film.
