简要总结
This study aims to evaluate the dry eye induced by refractive surgery and the effect of oral lactoferrin on the post refractive surgery dry eye. Refractive surgeries are known to induce postoperative dry eye, furthermore, the inflammation caused by the surgery, the distortion of the ocular surface and preservative in the eye drops used post-operatively, all exacerbate the condition. Lactoferrin, a glycoprotein present in the tears, has several functions, including anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and as well as promotion of cell growth. Lactoferrin treatment for the post refractive surgery dry eye proves to be significant by this study and we will be able to develop a feasible and reliable nutritional supplement for dry eye.
