Effects of Tobramycin Dexamethasone Eye Drops on the Improvement of Ocular Symptoms and Tear Film Stability in Patients with Dry Eye after Cataract Surgery
Objective To investigate the effects of tobramycin dexamethasone eye drops on the improvement of ocular symptoms and tear film stability in patients with dry eye after cataract surgery.Methods A total of 98 patients with dry eye after cataract surgery treated in Nanjing Lihe District Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from July 2022 to June 2023 were selected as the study subjects.They were randomly divided into two groups by computer.The con-trol group(49 cases)received recombinant bovine basic fibroblast growth factor eye gel treatment,and the observation group(49 cases)received tobramycin and dexamethasone eye drops treatment.After 30 days of continuous treatment,the ocular symptoms,tear film stability and adverse reactions occurence of the two groups were compared.Results The ocular surface disease index(OSFI)scores and corneal fiuoresence staining(CFS)scores in the observation group were lower than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(both P<0.05).After treat-ment,the indexes of tear film breakup time,Schirmer Ⅱtext and tear film thickness in observation group were better than those in control group,and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05).The incidence of adverse re-actions in the observation group was 8.16%,lower than 12.24%in the control group,and the difference was not statis-tically significant(χ2=0.446,P=0.505).Conclusion Tobramycin dexamethasone eye drops can be a good treatment for patients with dry eye after cataract surgery,promoting benign improvement of ocular symptoms and maintaining tear film stability.
