Dry Eye Disease
Conditions
Brief summary
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of applying pulse electrical stimulation around eye in dry eye disease patients who are scheduled for LASEK surgery.
Detailed description
Duration of study period (per participant): Screening period (0-14 days), Intervention period (12 weeks), F/U period (2 weeks) Patient needs to visit site at least 9 times (Screening, baseline, V1, V2, V3, Tele-visit, V4, V5, F/U Tele-visit). Baseline visit will be done on the day of surgery. Visit 1, 2, 3, Tele-visit, 4, 5, F/U Tele-visit is 1 day, 3 days, 1 weeks, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 12 weeks and 16weeks after baseline visit.
Interventions
Patients wear our clinical trial device 15\ 30 mins once a day for 14 days and once a week from the 15th day to the 12th week.
