Objective: To assess the correlation between non-invasive tear break-up time (NIBUT) and patient-reported symptoms in Dry Eye Disease (DED), and to explore whether NIBUT can serve as a supportive clinical parameter reflecting symptom severity.
Methods: This single-centre retrospective study included data from 295 subjects (209 females and 86 males), complaining of chronic ocular discomfort and evaluated in a third-level specialized lab - Laboratory for Cornea and Ocular Surface Analysis, in the period between July 2023 and June 2024. NIBUT was measured with the CA-800 topographer (Topcon Healthcare, Tokyo, Japan), while subjective symptoms were estimated with the Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI), the Visual Analogue Score (VAS), and the Numerical Rate Score (NRS).
