Market Fundamental
A Dry eye is a condition in which a person doesn't have enough quality tears to lubricate and nourish the eye. Tears are necessary for maintaining the health of the front surface of the eye and for providing clear vision. Treatments for dry eyes may make patients more comfortable. These treatments can include lifestyle changes, eyelid washing, and the use of over-the-counter (OTC) eyedrops or other products that help in lubricating eyes. Furthermore, it is known for being underestimated, misdiagnosed, and undertreated despite the fact that it can be progressive and have serious effects on a patient's eyesight and quality of life. The rising prevalence of dry eye disease (DED), affects 20 million Americans and 344 million people worldwide, and its prevalence is rising in both young and adults, making it crucial for doctors to determine the most effective course of treatment.
