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.
