The Crucial Interplay Between Glaucoma and Dry Eye: Understanding and Managing Co-Existing Conditions

Eight years have passed since the first English edition of this groundbreaking textbook, and the significance of addressing co-existing glaucoma and dry eye conditions remains paramount. The concurrent presence of dry eye can severely impact the daily lives of glaucoma patients, leading to reduced adherence to antiglaucomatous eye drop regimens. This, in turn, poses a significant risk factor for the progression of glaucomatous optic neuropathy.

In practical terms, managing both conditions simultaneously can be a complex and daunting task. This intricate interplay between glaucoma disease and dry eye is critical to understanding and addressing the unique needs of affected patients. The second edition of this textbook aims to provide in-depth insights into this complex issue, empowering healthcare professionals to provide optimal care and management strategies for patients struggling with co-existing glaucoma and dry eye.
