PROVIDER STATEMENT

Educational Partner

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


SUPPORT STATEMENT

This activity is supported by an educational grant from Tarsus Pharmaceuticals,
Inc.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION

Recent US studies have reported Demodex blepharitis infestation rates of 55% to
58% in eye care clinical patients. However, patients with Demodex blepharitis
may go undiagnosed or misdiagnosed due to overlapping symptoms seen in dry eye
disease and other ocular surface or lid margin disorders. Treatment can also be
challenging as there are currently no FDA-approved therapies and most
conventional options treat the symptoms of disease but not the underlying cause.
Emerging therapeutic options are currently under clinical investigation that
treat and target the underlying cause of Demodex blepharitis offering the
potential to resolve disease and improve patient quality of life measures. In
this continuing medical education activity, experts in the field review the
burden and prevalence of Demodex blepharitis, evaluate the efficacy of
conventional treatment strategies, and assess the latest clinical evidence
pertaining to emerging therapies that hold promise in the treatment of this
disease.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


TARGET AUDIENCE

The intended audience for this activity is ophthalmologists, optometrists,
pharmacists, and other health care professionals involved in treating Demodex
blepharitis.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


LEARNING OBJECTIVES

Upon successful completion of this activity, participants should be better able
to:

 * Review the burden and prevalence of Demodex blepharitis and the efficacy of
   conventional therapies used to treat the condition.
 * Assess new clinical evidence about emerging therapies that hold promise in
   the treatment of Demodex blepharitis.
