Résumé : | We read with interest the article by Szczotka-Flynn and colleagues1 regarding the impact of dry eye on visual acuity and contrast sensitivity function, wherein the authors determined that severe meibomian gland dysfunction and decreased tear breakup time were associated with impaired contrast sensitivity function. While we concur that it is likely that contrast sensitivity function is diminished in patients with tear film instability or other ocular surface disease, the authors did not control for important sources of potential confounding effects: retinal ganglion cells and vitreous[...] |
