# CSI Dry Eye Software

> CSI Dry Eye Software is point-of-care diagnostic software for optometrists and ophthalmologists. It automates dry eye workups, flags medication risks, detects conditions that mimic dry eye disease, and generates AI-powered, evidence-based treatment plans — cutting comprehensive dry eye assessments from about 45 minutes down to 15.

CSI is used by eye care professionals across 4 continents, including general optometry practices, ophthalmology and cornea specialists, and clinics performing pre-operative screening for LASIK and cataract surgery. It is not funded by any pharmaceutical or device company, so recommendations are clinically impartial.

## What CSI Does

- Automates dry eye patient intake using validated questionnaires (OSDI, SPEED, DEQ-5, and more), completed by patients on their own device via QR code or email
- Applies patented AI/machine-learning pattern recognition, including a TFOS DEWS III-aligned 9-cell diagnostic severity grid, to classify aqueous, evaporative, and mixed dry eye disease
- Flags 100+ medications with known dry eye or meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) side effects
- Detects "Mimickers" — non-dry-eye conditions that present with similar symptoms
- Supports 4 assessment types: Pre-Operative Screening (for LASIK and cataract surgery candidates), ASCRS Pre-Op, Accelerated Dry Eye Assessment, and Gold Standard
- Generates structured treatment recommendations across OTC products, prescriptions, exercises, and in-office procedures
- Exports reports in multiple PDF formats and supports one-click copy to EMR
- Tracks patient outcomes and treatment progress visit-over-visit

## Who It's For

- Optometrists and ophthalmologists managing dry eye disease as a routine or specialized part of their practice
- Refractive and cataract surgeons who need standardized pre-operative dry eye screening (up to 80% of cataract surgery candidates have some degree of dry eye disease)
- Patients looking for a CSI-powered clinic near them, or wanting to understand dry eye symptoms, causes, and treatment options
