Abstract
|
|
|
|
This study aims to review the trend of clinical research on dry eye syndrome using Korean medicine. Studies published after 2010 were selected through three international online databases (PubMed, Cochrane Library, CNKI) and two domestic online databases (Science on, OASIS). Only clinical researches were selected and analyzed with the research method. A total of 19 studies related to dry eye treatment were conducted for the past ten years. Acupuncture and herbal medicine were the most frequently used treatment methods. Evaluation tools to measure the patients’ improvement were SIT (Schirmer I test), OSDI (Ocular Surface Disease Index), and BUT (Tear film break-up time). Korean medicine had superior therapeutic effects for dry eye syndrome treatment compared to artificial tear treatment, and the most frequently used treatment method was acupuncture treatment.
