Brief Summary
|
After obtaining written informed
consent, participants will be evaluated in the following standardized sequence
Screening for dry eye disease
through Schirmer’s test in clinical evaluation.
Assessment of peripheral neuropathy
using the Michigan
Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI) questionnaire
Objective evaluation of ocular
surface parameters using an Ocular Surface Analyzer (OSA)
Assessment of dry eye symptoms
using the Ocular
Surface Disease Index (OSDI) questionnaire
All assessments will be performed
by a trained examiner to ensure uniformity and minimize bias.
