This video illustrates the damage that hyperosmolarity can have on the ocular surface and thus visual acuity. Osmolarity increases due to a decrease in aqueous production and/or the decrease in lipid production. Left undiagnosed and untreated, hyperosmolar tears become increasingly toxic to the corneal epithelium. Watch to learn more! ...
