Individuals with migraine demonstrated a different dry eye (DE) symptom, yet a similar DE sign profile when compared with those without migraine, a new study found. The prospective cross-sectional study of individuals with DE symptoms evaluated symptoms and signs of DE, including symptoms suggestive of nerve dysfunction. Among the details:
- Of 250 individuals, 31 met International Classification of Headache Disorders criteria for migraine based on a validated screen.
- Those with migraine were significantly younger and more likely to be female vs controls.
- Individuals with migraine had more severe DE symptoms and ocular pain vs controls.
- DE symptoms in those with migraine may be driven by nerve dysfunction as opposed to ocular surface abnormalities.
