ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To evaluate the efficacy of topical 0.1% hyaluronate (HA) and 0.05% cyclosporine A on tear film parameters in dry eye syndrome patients.METHODS:
Patients who were diagnosed with dry eye syndrome were treated with mbined with cyclosporine A (Group 2, 54 eyes). Ocular surface disease index (OSDI), tear film break-up time (BUT), Schirmer's test, and tear osmolarity were evaluated before treatment and at 1, 2, 3, and 6 months after treatment.RESULTS:
OSDI was significantly improved at 2 months after treatment and Schirmer's test results significantly improved at 1 month after treatment in both groups. The BUT was significantly improved 3 months after treatment in Group 1 and at 1 month after treatment in Group 2. Tear osmolarity significantly improved at 1 month after treatment in both groups, but continuously improved up to 6 months after treatment only in Group 2. The BUT and Schirmer's test showed greater improvements in Group 2 than in Group 1.CONCLUSIONS:
Combined treatment of topical 0.1% HA and 0.05% cyclosporine A may be more effective for improving dry eye syndrome.
