The aim of this study was to analyze the pattern of prescription and determine causative factors of Dry eye disease and Scleritis. Evaluation of eye dryness after cataract surgery for determine association with intraoperative risk factors. The prospective study was performed by including 150 Dry eye disease and 80 Scleritis patients at sat Kaival hospital, Sarsa. During December 2012 to April 2013, Demographic data of all patients were collected and distributed as age groups and gender, females were distributed according to pre and post menopausal time.

Diabetes 30% and cataract 30.66% were more associated with Dry eye disease. Artificial tears 56.39% were more preferable drugs according to this study. SICS significantly increase dryness of the eye (p value <0.05). Scleritis was ocular inflammation, frequently occur in RA (rheumatoid arthritis patients) patients, however Episcleritis significantly occur in non rheumatoid patients. Dry eye disease was multifactorial disease, menopause and old age might have effect on Dry eye disease. Post menopausal and elderly patients were comparatively higher. SICS significantly led dryness.
