Neuroprotective and Anti-Inflammatory Strategies for Corneal Nerve Regeneration and Ocular Surface Stability After Corneal Refractive Surgeries: A Systematic Review
Listen to this summary
This systematic review aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory pharmacotherapies in promoting corneal nerve regeneration and ocular surface stability following corneal refractive surgeries. The authors found that topical cyclosporine 0.05% showed the most significant benefits in enhancing nerve function and tear film stability, while other treatments yielded varying results. They concluded that further research with larger, double-masked trials is necessary to better understand the efficacy of these interventions.

"Oslr has become part of my weekly routine on my day off. The clinical relevance of the summaries is outstanding — I'd rate it 9/10. Being able to consume research hands-free is a huge advantage for busy physicians."
