The precorneal tear film is a complex structure that has attracted much attention over the years, especially in relation to dry eyes and contact lens (CL) wear. A healthy and stable tear film is essential for comfortable vision and successful CL wear.1 With an estimated 40% of the North American population suffering from dry eyes2 and some 60 million CL wearers worldwide,3 the need for simple, accurate, and cost-effective tests of tear stability has spawned much research both in the ophthalmic industry and in clinical practice.
