Abstract:
Dry eye is a common ocular condition characterized by symptoms such as eye dryness,irritation,and blurred vision.The main treatment of dry eye has been for a long time to supplement tear components,including the use of artificial tears,punctal occlusion,and meibomian gland expression.However,these methods have proven ineffective for some patients,making the exploration of new treatment mechanisms particularly important.In recent years,neurostimula-tion therapy has emerged as a novel treatment approach and received widespread attention in the field of dry eye treatment.In this article,the current applications of neurostimulation in the treatment of dry eye and its potential future applications were thoroughly investigated,aiming to provide a reference for further research on neurostimulation therapy in the treat-ment of dry eye.
