Abstract:
Inflammation is a defensive reaction and the most common pathological manifestation of dry eye.In addition,excessive inflammatory response is considered to be the most common pathogenic factor and main cause of dry eye.Currently,the active mechanism of anti-inflammatory drugs has been well-known,and topical antiinflammatory therapy for dry eye is exerting a role at certain extend.However,some adverse responses of these drugs are emerging during the treating procedure.Therefore,it is emphasized that a large sample size of and multicenter randomized-controlled clinical trial is needed to identify the different effects of various anti-inflammatory drugs for different types of dry eye diseases,which will offer a basis for standardized anti-inflammatory treatment for dry eye.
