Abstract |
Dry eye syndrome (DES) is an eye disease known as keratoconjunctivitis sicca, which causes defects in the eye and tear film due to various causes. Common symptoms include irritation, foreign body sensation, light sensitivity, and itching. Anti-inflammatory drugs such as corticosteroids and cyclosporine are also used as treatments for dry eye syndrome. However, there were risk of side effects such as glaucoma and cataract in long-term use. To solve the problems, we studied for the prevention and treatment of dry eye syndrome using natural products. In this presentation, we found that Terminalia chebula extracts or fractions play a crucial role in preventing or treating dry eye syndrome, and will show the therapeutic effect of dry eye syndrome through Terminalia chebula extract and fractions in In-vivo. |
