Introduction
Cyclosporine ophthalmic solution is an immunomodulatory agent primarily used for the treatment of dry eye disease. If patients with dry eye disease do not have other ocular conditions, such as ocular infections or corneal ulcers, then under a doctor's guidance, appropriate use of cyclosporine ophthalmic solution is usually effective. In daily life, it is important to maintain fresh indoor air and regularly ventilate by opening windows to avoid air pollution.
Generally, whether cyclosporine eye drops are effective for dry eye syndrome can be determined by analyzing the presence of other ocular diseases. If discomfort occurs, prompt medical attention is recommended. Detailed analysis is as follows:
