Abstract
In DED patients, chronic pain syndromes are common and are associated with increased severity of DED symptoms across all domains of the OSDI, even though objective ocular surface signs are no worse. In clinical practice, more awareness of chronic pain syndromes might help in understanding the discrepancy between signs and symptoms in DED.
