Ocular Surface Disease in Patients with Glaucoma
Ocular surface disease in patients with glaucoma: Both ocular surface disease and glaucoma are more common in older, and first-line therapy for these disease entities are topical medications. They are both spectrum of disease and severity but when coexistent can compound each other. This interaction is further complicated by treatments for each condition which can interact and yield counterproductive effects.
