Clinical efficacy of IPL in the treatment of MGD-associated dry eye and its effect on ocular function
Objective To investigate the effects of intense pulsed light(IPL)on dry eye symptoms and mental state in patients with meibomian gland dysfunction(MGD)associated with dry eye.Methods A prospective case-control study.Sixty patients with MGD-related dry eye who were admitted to our hospital from October 2019 to October 2022 were selected,and randomly divided into the control group and the observation group,with 30 cases in each group.The control group received conventional treatment combined with meibomian gland massage,and the observation group received IPL treatment on the basis of the control group,and the treatment duration was 8 weeks.The clinical efficacy,mental state,dry eye related indicators and after the treatment and complications during the treatment were compared between the two groups.Results After the treatment,the total effective rate of the observation group was higher than that of the control group.Compared with before the treatment,the scores of self-rating anxiety scale(SAS),self-rating depression scale(SDS),ocular surface disease index(OSDI)and corneal fluorescein sodium staining score(CFS)in the two groups decreased after treatment,and the observation group was lower than the control group.The length of SIt increased,and the observation group was longer than the control group.The break-up time(BUT)prolonged,and the observation group was longer than the control group.During treatment,the total complication rate of the control group was higher than that of the observation group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusions The treatment of MGD-related dry eye with IPL combined with meibomian gland massage can effectively relieve the symptoms of dry eye,reduce anxiety,depression and other negative emotions,reduce the risk of complications,and further optimize the therapeutic effect.
