Effects of Sustained Reading on the Ocular Surface

Stopped early

Conditions studied: Dry Eye Syndromes, Sjogren's Syndrome

In brief

This research is being done to to see if changes in visual reading function correlate with changes in optical and retinal image quality. We hypothesize that changes and deterioration in tear film quality and dynamics may have a negative effect on reading function. People with or without dry eye syndrome may enroll.
