Heterogeneity in DE symptoms and signs was noted in individuals with SjD, with approximately one-third of individuals reporting significant spontaneous and\/or evoked pain using various descriptors and indicating certain triggers, and approximately half having low tear production. Similarly, heterogeneity was noted with respect to oral and pain complaints, with extraocular pain symptoms found in approximately one-third of the population. Different ocular phenotypes aligned with different extraocular findings. Specifically, grittiness or scratchiness in the eyes (OR=1.6), blurred vision (OR=1.4) and low tear production (OR=1.8) most closely aligned with oral dryness (\u2018Does your mouth feel dry?). On the other hand, burning or stinging in the eyes (OR=1.6), discomfort in low humidity (OR=1.2) and the absence of DE signs (normal tear production, OR=0.7; lack of ocular surface staining, OR=0.6) most closely aligned with pain outside the eye (\u2018Do you experience persistent or frequent burning discomfort?\u2019).<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n
