Core Tip |
This study aimed to understand more about patients with dry eyes by exploring the corneal nerve morphology and function. A total of 131 patients were enrolled and divided into four groups depending on their types accordingly. Then, several tests were employed, including tear film break-up time, Schirmer I, in vivo confocal microscopy, and blink reflex tests. The tests results revealed that the nerve fiber length in three of four groups was reduced, R1 Latency of blink reflexes increased only in one group. Besides, the nerve branch density and R1 Latency differed between the two groups. |
