Popis: AIM: To observe the clinical effect of 3% diquafosol sodium eye drops in treatment of meibomian gland dysfunction-related dry eye.METHODS: The study involved 280 patients totally with meibomian gland dysfunction-related dry eye in the ophthalmology department, Hangzhou Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from May 2020 to May 2021. Patients were divided into the treatment group(160 cases with 320 eyes)and the control group(120 cases with 240 eyes)according to the randomized number table method. The control group was treated with YangXueRunMu formula combined with 0.3% sodium hyaluronate eye drops, the treatment group was treated with YangXueRunMu formula combined with 3% diquafosol sodium eye drops. Both groups were administered for 4wk. The following indicators were measured before and after treatment at 2 and 4wk, respectively: the ocular surface disease index(OSDI)score, Schirmer I test( SⅠt), comprehensive analysis of tear meniscus height(TMH), non-invasive tear film break-up time(NITBUT), meibomian gland lipid secretion of smooth degree scoring and meibomian gland loss rate score, the determination of interleukin-6(IL-6)in tears and the level of tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-α). The efficacy of these tests results was evaluated among these indicators.RESULTS: The overall effective rates of the treatment group and the control group were 95.6% and 81.7% respectively(P0.05).CONCLUSION: The 3% diquafosol sodium eye drops can promote the normal secretion of meibomian gland by prolonging the homeostasis of the tear membrane, and it can also inhibit the release of inflammatory factors in tears in the treatment of blebomian gland dysfunction-related dry eye.
