Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Most of the patients under long application of anti-glaucoma eyedrops endure severe ocular surface irritation, which interrupt their quality of life a lot. Lots of studies aimed to search for new drugs for therapy. The investigators hypothesized that the artificial tears containing vitamin A or carbomer may be a great substitute. Both of the two drugs were in common use and had already been tested in animals.
