Mask-Associated Dry Eye

Mask-Associated Dry Eye

Wearing a face mask is an important part of preventing the spread of Covid-19, but masks can come with some not-so-great side effects like foggy glasses, and general irritation around the face.

A new study published in ‘Cornea’ has shown that improper face mask use may decrease tear film stability in those with moderate to severe dry eye.

With face masks becoming more commonplace due to the Covid-19 pandemic, researchers are reviewing the potential for them to cause ocular irritation or dryness. Researchers conducted a cross-sectional study of patients with moderate to severe DED to evaluate whether tear film stability worsens with the mask use.
