The World Council of Optometry (WCO) and Alcon have released a 3 video-series to help eyecare professionals (ECPs) around the world understand and apply recommendations from the recently published Tear Film & Ocular Surface Society Dry Eye Workshop III (TFOS DEWS III) report. 

The segments feature Professors Jennifer Craig, Lyndon Jones, and James Wolffsohn, all of whom were part of the TFOS DEWS III Steering Committee and have been key contributors to the WCO-Alcon initiative. The videos summarize the overall report, review the diagnostic methodology section, and highlight elements of the management and therapy report.

The release of the video series follows the recent launch of the Dry Eye Management Map, an online interactive tool designed by the partnership to assist optometrists in navigating dry eye disease management. ECPs also have free access to the WCO Alcon Dry Eye Wheel, which uses a 3-step approach to help them support patients with dry eye: mitigation, measurement, and management.OM
