Treatments

Eight complementary approaches forming the interventional dry eye toolkit. The strength of the approach lies in combining treatment technologies in sequences guided by clinical logic.

Therapeutic landscape

The full arsenal available to the clinician

The eight modalities detailed above sit within a wider therapeutic landscape. Interventional Dry Eye does not rank these families against one another: it selects, for a given phenotype, the combination whose mechanisms are complementary and whose effects are synergistic.
