Abstract
Tear hyperosmolarity is diagnostic of dry eye disease (DED), yet difficulty in measurement has limited its utility; development of new instruments could facilitate its clinical application. This study compares the new OcuSense TearLab osmometer (OcuSense, Inc, San Diego, CA), based on electrical impedance “lab-on-a-chip” nanoliter technology, with the freezing point depression Clifton Osmometer (Clifton Technical Physics, Hartford, NY).
