[Clinical correlations between dry eye and cataract surgery].
Cataract procedure is sometimes followed by dry eye symptoms. The dimensions of the incisions, topical medication and other manoeuvres are responsible for these phenomena. I tried to objective them by break-up-time (BUT) and Schirmer test. The favourable outcomes of artificial tears confirm this theory.
