Corneal Edema
Conditions
Keywords
corneal edema, sodium chloride, single-dose
Brief summary
Corneal edema is frequently found in clinical practice as a common sign of acute corneal disease due to different etiologies that cause an accumulation of extracellular fluid in the cornea. The present unicentric clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and tolerance of an ophthalmic solution of hypertonic sodium chloride (NaCl 5%) without preservatives in participants suffering from symptomatic corneal edema.
Interventions
