In 2024, we surveyed 2,000 PROSE patients with ocular surface disease. The survey respondents reported high success rates, however, 62% of respondents reported they waited 3 or more years for a PROSE referral. Given the high success rate of PROSE, we hope to improve awareness of PROSE treatment earlier in individuals’ eye care journeys, both for patients and their referring specialists.
