- Abstract:
The article comments on the DRy Eye Assessment and Management (DREAM) study, which evaluates the use of omega-3 fatty acids (FA) in the treatment of dry eye disease (DED), and its value for clinicians. Topics mentioned include the drawbacks of the study including the use of traditional measurements that have limited sensitivity and specificity, the inapplicability of the results on all omega FA, and the use of nutraceuticals in ophthalmology.
