Why are Lipid-Based Eye Drops Important in Histology?
In the context of histology, the health of the ocular surface at a cellular level is crucial. [Histological studies]() of the eye tissues reveal that a deficient lipid layer can lead to increased tear evaporation, hyperosmolarity, and inflammation of the ocular surface. These conditions can cause cellular damage and morphological changes in the conjunctiva and cornea. Lipid-based eye drops help maintain the homeostasis of these tissues by providing the necessary lipids to the tear film.
