The Effects of Increasing Ocular Surface Stimulation on Blinking and Tear Secretion.

abstract：PURPOSE:Subtle structural and functional neuroretinal changes have been described in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected adults without retinitis treated with combination antiretroviral therapy (cART). However, studies on this subject in HIV-infected children are scarce. This study aimed to assess the presence ...
