nAMD and DME Management: Rapid Response From ARVO
Real-world outcomes with anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapies in the management of patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) or diabetic macular edema (DME) are often not comparable to those of clinical studies. Discrepancies in these outcomes have been associated with undertreatment due to high treatment burden and the associated loss of patient adherence to dosing schedules. Newer therapies with novel mechanisms that extend intervals between dosing... |

Eyeing the Options for Treating Meibomian Gland Dysfunction and Dry Eye Disease
Dry eye disease (DED) is highly prevalent but frequently underdiagnosed and subsequently undertreated. Studies have demonstrated that meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) is a leading cause of the development and progression of evaporative DED, caused by a deficient tear film lipid layer that leads to increased tear evaporation. New and emerging treatments with novel mechanisms of action are being investigated that manage the signs and symptoms of DED associated with MGD and offer the potential f... |
