Summary

In seeking care, patients with dry eye disease (DED) may be examined by a number of different healthcare professionals (HCPs). For the benefit of the patient, these HCPs should co-operate in the delivery of their care. However, in the literature, there are only a few reports of studies looking at cooperation between HCPs for DED management. As a first step, this study assessed current knowledge in three HCPs of DED diagnosis and management.
