In this podcast episode of 30 minutes, we explore how we can enhance patient care by integrating nutritional guidance, including supplements, into dry eye management strategies.
Nutrition, like health in general as well as sleep, can really support eye health, and more specifically, the ocular surface. Dr Byki Huntjens and Iain Johnson will explore how diet and nutrition impact the development and severity of dry eye symptoms.
