Background: Dry Eye Disease (DED) is a multifactorial disorder characterized by tear film instability and ocular surface inflammation. Murine models based on environmental stress are widely used to mimic evaporative DED, although many focus on limited disease features. This study aimed to provide an integrated characterization of ocular surface alterations induced by chronic desiccating stress. Methods: Adult mice were housed in a Controlled-Environmental Chamber (CEC) with low humidity and increased airflow for up to 21 days and sacrificed after 14 or 21 days. Corneal damage was assessed by fluorescein staining. Conjunctival histology was evaluated for epithelial morphology, goblet cell (GC) size, and mucin composition. Complement fractions C3 and C5a were assessed by immunohistochemistry. Expression of inflammatory markers (Major Histocompatibility Complex, Class II, DR, HLA-DR; interleukin-1β, IL-1β; tumor necrosis factor-α, TNF-α) was quantified by Real-Time PCR (RT-PCR) in corneal and conjunctival epithelium. Results: Fluorescein staining revealed progressive corneal epithelial damage over time. Histological analysis demonstrated conjunctival epithelial alterations characterized by a significant reduction in GC size and in neutral mucin-positive GCs, consistent with mucin remodeling of the ocular surface epithelium. Increased epithelial deposition of complement fractions C3 and C5a was observed, while molecular analysis confirmed upregulation of inflammatory markers, including HLA-DR, IL-1β, and TNF-α. Collectively, these findings indicate that the model captures key pathophysiological components of DED. Conclusions: The CEC model reproduces major features of evaporative DED, including epithelial damage, GC remodeling, immune activation, and inflammation. As a non-invasive desiccating stress model, it represents a relevant experimental platform for studying ocular surface inflammation and for preclinical evaluation of therapeutic strategies.
