Effect of Yangxue Runmu formula combined with sodium hyaluronate on dry eye after cataract surgery evaluated by ocular surface analyzer

AIM:To evaluate the effect of Yangxue Runmu formula combined with sodium hyaluronate on dry eye after cataract surgery by ocular surface analyzer.METHODS: Totally 80 patients with dry eye after cataract surgery in our hospital from June 2019 to December 2020 were selected and divided into control group and observation group by random number table method, 40 cases in each group. The control group was treated with sodium hyaluronate eye drops, and the observation group was treated with Yangxue Runmu formula combined with sodium hyaluronate eye drops. The index levels of ocular surface analyzer and fluorescein staining(FL)score were compared between the two groups.RESULTS: After treatment, the wet length of tear film, first non-invasive tear break-up time(NIBUTf), average non-invasive tear break-up time(NIBUTav)and tear meniscus height(LTMH)in the two groups were markedly higher than those before treatment(all P
