Efficacy of Warm Compress Therapy in Enhancing Tear Film Quality and Reducing Postoperative DES

Dry eye disease (DED) is a multifactorial condition often exacerbated by cataract surgery, leading to discomfort and visual disturbances. Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), a key cause of DED, contributes to tear film instability, which can be managed with warm compress therapy.
