Conditions
Brief summary
Data analyses and revision of the DED symptoms. A novel ophthalmic solution containing cross-linked CMC (CX-CMC) and Silk Proteins (SP) has been made available on the market. Both molecules have been widely studied for their viscoelastic and hydrating, and wound healing properties. This new ophthalmic solution is the first on the market formulated with a CX-CMC and SP.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| TBUT | 3 months | Tear Breakup Time |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| OSDI | 3 months | Ocular Surface Disease Index |
| Wound Healing | 30 hours | Scratch test performed on cell lines using the Ibidi Culture-Inserts. The test provides hinds on the ability of a cell line to cover a wound created in the monolayer. Results are given as % of the area covered |
| UV and Blue light absorption | 0 hours | The ability of the solution to absorb UV and blue light will be evaluated via a spectrophotometer. The outcome will be measured in arbitrary units. |
