TearFloTM is being used to evaluate tear secretion - Schirmer test. More than 15 mm wetting of a graduated strip folded at a given notch over a 5-minute period of examination with eyes closed has been considered as a normal tear secretion. Wetting values less than 10 mm are being considered as hypose- cretion. Schirmer test is the oldest method available for Dry Eye Disease diagnosis.
BioGloTM is the best-known brand in the diagnostics of ocular surface. It has been well accepted and recognised as the leading diagnostic aid on the oph- thalmic market. BioGloTM strips are being used to diagnose tear film disorders. Fluorescein stains corneal epithelial defects and penetrate through these defects into the intercellular space, thus showing the dead epithelial cells and exposed basement membrane of the cornea. Fluorescein test strips are being used to examine patient’s cornea and conjunctiva using a slit lamp with a blue filter on. Further- more, fluorescein is widely used in measuring intraocular pressure using applanation tonometry to evaluate hard contact lens fitting, and to evaluate break-up time (B.U.T.).
