Effect of Airflow Exposure on the Tear Meniscus

Figure 2

(a)-(b) Airflow-exposure-induced changes in the tear meniscus are presented for normal and short tear film breakup time dry eye (SBUT dry eye) groups. (c)-(d) In SBUT dry eye, both TMH and TMA decreased significantly ( 𝑃 = 0 . 0 2 7 and 𝑃 = 0 . 0 2 7 , resp., Wilcoxon signed-rank test). SBUT dry eye: short tear film breakup time dry eye; TMH: tear meniscus height; TMA: tear meniscus area.
