Investigating the Role of Specific Tear Film Lipids Connected to Dry Eye Syndrome : A Study on O-Acyl-ω-hydroxy Fatty Acids and Diesters

Dry eye syndrome (DES) is a prevalent disease in which the tear film homeostasis is compromised. One of the main causes of DES is thought to be an alteration in the composition of the outermost layer of the tear film, the tear film lipid layer (TFLL), resulting in an increased evaporation of water f...
