- Abstract
Objective To observe the curative effect of vitamin A palmitate eye gel in treatment of dry eyes. Methods Seventy-two patients (144 eyes) with dry eyes were randomly divided into treatment group and control group, each group of 36 cases. Treatment group was treated with vitamin A palmitate eye gel plus sodium hyaluronate eye drops, but the control group was treated with single sodium hyaluronate eye drops. The subjective symptom scores, tear film breakup time (BUT) measurement, Schirmer test (SIt), and corneal fluorescein staining (FL) were measured at 1 month before and after treatment. Results The effective rate of treatment group and control group was 100% and 43% (17/36), respectively. There was significant difference between the two groups (P< 0.05). Conclusion Vitamin A palmitate eye gel plays an important role in the treatment of dry eyes.
