This is an analysis assessing clinical results after treatment with punctum Plugs in dry-eye patients stubborn to usual treatment.
We analysed retrospectively data from 60 patients treated by fitting in 1 to 4 silicone plugs in canaliculi.
This study allowed to assess the advantages and disadvantages of the method, notably according to the selection criteria of patients and to the number of plugs inserted.
This revertible treatment of the dry-eye syndrome is an efficient alternative, provided that patients are judiciousely selected.
本分析旨在评估对常规治疗无效的干眼症患者使用泪点塞治疗后的临床效果。
我们回顾性分析了60例患者的数据，这些患者接受了在泪小管中植入1至4个硅胶塞的治疗。
本研究有助于评估该方法的优缺点，特别是根据患者的选择标准和植入塞子的数量。
只要患者选择得当，这种干眼症综合征的可逆治疗是一种有效的替代方法。
