ABOUT CLOSE:

CLOSE was created to provide a path for ocular surface management into practice.  This year long program will provide the support for the practitioner interested in actively incorporating dry eye disease diagnostic and management strategies in their practice.

Surveys will be sent out on the diagnostics and incorporation of strategies from Phase 1.

A logical diagnostic algorithm will be created based on the data collected from the surveys.

• Algorithms will include differentials, such as evaporative, aqueous, etc

  • What is currently being done with collected information?

  • When are you seeing patients back for follow up visits?
