A prototype xeroscope for the noninvasive measurement of tear-breakup time
Objective: To develop a noninvasive method for measuring tear-breakup time (TBUT) using readily available materials. Methods: A prototype xeroscope was made using acetate with concentric rings printed on it, and cut to a diameter of 3.6 cm. The cut-out was attached to the front of an ordinary fla...
