Resumen:
Ocular surface diseases are a major health public problem, constituting the primary causes of ophthalmological consultation at the global scale. The first alternative to treat dry eye syndrome is by means of artificial tears (AT) existing many types available in the market, thus producing confusion in the adequate selection.One alternative to evaluate physical properties of viscoelastic solutions is the Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM). In this work, the characterization of different commercial AT brands were developed by using a QCM device to sense frequency and dissipation changes to help in the selection of a personalized artificial tear for a correct treatment.
