Medical Monday - What is STODS?

What is Surgically-induced Transient Ocular Discomfort Syndrome (STODS)?
In this episode of Medical Monday on eradiosa.com, Dr Dylan Joseph discusses this new term, which is used to describe the dry eye symptoms, foreign body sensation, or fluctuation of vision sometimes experienced by patients during the post-operative recovery period after an eye procedure.
Frequently asked questions that are answered include:
- Does everyone develop STODS?
- Is STODS treatable?
- For how long will these symptoms persist?
- What is happening when my vision fluctuates?
- Is there a specific age group who is more at risk of developing STODS?
