Diagnostic accuracy of non-invasive tear film break-up time assessed by the simple manual interferometric device

To determine the diagnostic accuracy of non-invasive tear film break-up time (NIBUT) measured by the handheld lipid layer examination instrument. 108 patients were enrolled in this cross-sectional study and divided into two groups: patients with dry eye (n = 57) categorized by the presence of dry ey...
