On OSDI scoring, 20.45% of patients had mild, 18.18% moderate, and 31.81% had a severe grade of DED, respectively. The mean OSDI score was noted to be significantly higher in patients with perennial allergic conjunctivitis (PAC) (29.82 \u00b1 12.41), followed by seasonal allergic conjunctivitis (SAC) (25.35 \u00b1 12.88), and least in the patients of vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) (13.60 \u00b1 8.63) (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.0001), respectively. The TFBUT was found to be less than 10 s in 45.45% of PAC, 30.43% of SAC, and 20% of VKC patients, respectively. The difference between the mean TFBUT among the three groups was statistically insignificant (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 0.683).
