Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

ocular surface disease index (OSDI)
OSDI is one of the most frequently used questionnaires for evaluation of dry eye disease (DED). This includes 12 questions which measure the frequency of symptoms over the recent week, and the scores range from 0 to 100.
Tear break-up time (TBUT)(s)
BUT is the time from normal blinking to the first appearance of a break in the tear film.
Corneal fluorescein staining (CFS)
The degree of fluorescein staining of the cornea was evaluated using the National Eye Institute (NEI) scale of five corneal regions (central, superior, temporal, nasal, and inferior). The scores range from 0 to 15.
Schirmer I test (SIt) (mm/5 minutes)
The Schirmer I test is performed using sterile strips without anesthesia. The strips are placed in the lateral part of the inferior fornix of the eye for 5min and the extent of tear flow down was measured in millimeters.
Lissamine green staining
To grade the temporal zone, the subject looks nasally; to grade the nasal zone the subject looks temporally. The upper and lower conjunctiva can also be graded.

Secondary Outcome Measures

the concentration of Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) (pg/ml)
basal tears will be collected from the inferior meniscus of each subject to test this inflammatory cytokine. IL-1β levels will be quantified by Luminex immunoassay.
the concentration of Interleukin-6 (IL-6) (pg/ml)
basal tears will be collected from the inferior meniscus of each subject to test this inflammatory cytokine. IL-6 levels will be quantified by Luminex immunoassay.
the concentration of Interleukin-10 (IL-10) (pg/ml)
basal tears will be collected from the inferior meniscus of each subject to test this inflammatory cytokine. IL-10 levels will be quantified by Luminex immunoassay.
the concentration of Interleukin-23 (IL-23) (pg/ml)
basal tears will be collected from the inferior meniscus of each subject to test this inflammatory cytokine. IL-23 levels will be quantified by Luminex immunoassay.
the concentration of Interleukin-17A (IL-17A) (pg/ml)
basal tears will be collected from the inferior meniscus of each subject to test this inflammatory cytokine. IL-17A levels will be quantified by Luminex immunoassay.
the concentration of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)(pg/ml)
basal tears will be collected from the inferior meniscus of each subject to test this inflammatory cytokine. TNF-α levels will be quantified by Luminex immunoassay.
the concentration of interferon-γ (IFN-γ)(pg/ml)
basal tears will be collected from the inferior meniscus of each subject to test this inflammatory cytokine. IFN-γ levels will be quantified by Luminex immunoassay
the concentration of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF)(pg/ml)
basal tears will be collected from the inferior meniscus of each subject to test this inflammatory cytokine. GM-CSF levels will be quantified by Luminex immunoassay.
the concentration of substance P (SP)(pg/ml)
basal tears will be collected from the inferior meniscus of each subject to test this neuropeptide. SP levels will be quantified by Luminex immunoassay.
the concentration of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) (pg/ml)
basal tears will be collected from the inferior meniscus of each subject to test this neuropeptide. α-MSH levels will be quantified by Luminex immunoassay.
the concentration of β-endorphin (pg/ml)
basal tears will be collected from the inferior meniscus of each subject to test this neuropeptide. β-endorphin levels will be quantified by Luminex immunoassay
the concentration of neurotensin (pg/ml
basal tears will be collected from the inferior meniscus of each subject to test this neuropeptide. β-endorphin levels will be quantified by Luminex immunoassay.
the concentration of oxytocin(pg/ml)
basal tears will be collected from the inferior meniscus of each subject to test this neuropeptide. oxytocin levels will be quantified by Luminex immunoassay.
corneal sensitivity (range, 60-0 mm)
Corneal sensitivity will be measured in the right eye only using the Cochet-Bonnet aesthesiometer and the ascending method of limits to determine the threshold of stimulus detection.
sub-basal corneal nerve density (mm/mm2)
Sub-basal corneal nerve plexus image will be acquired using a laser scanning confocal microscope.
numerical rating scale (NRS)
The NRS was used to evaluate ocular pain and consists of a numbered line from 0 to 10 scores that measures pain intensity: 0-1: no pain; 2-4: mild pain; 5-7: moderate pain; and 8-10: severe pain.
NPSI-Eye (range 0-100 score)
Neuropathic Pain Symptom Inventory modified for the Eye (NPSI-Eye) (range 0-100 over a 24-hour recall period)

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to observe the effect of 0.05% cyclosporine eyedrops combined with artificial tears in patients with dry eyes after corneal refractive surgery and to observe the changes in ocular surface characteristics and tear inflammatory cytokines before and after treatment.
Detailed Description
The purpose of this study is to observe the effect of 0.05% cyclosporine eyedrops combined with artificial tears in patients with dry eyes after corneal refractive surgery and to observe the changes in ocular surface characteristics and tear inflammatory cytokines before and after treatment. At the same time, this study further observed whether 0.05% cyclosporine eyedrops combined with artificial tear eyedrops were more beneficial to ocular surface repair and tear film homeostasis compared with traditional artificial tears alone.
