Both types of punctal plugs led to an improvement of the fluorescein and rose bengal staining scores in eyes with KCS. The difference in the retention rate and complications between the two types of plugs was probably caused by the differences in the material and the design of the plugs. Close monitoring is necessary to check for loss of plugs and to prevent complications.
Sunglasses not only protect against glare but also stabilize visual quality under various light conditions (e.g. passing through a tunnel while driving). Aging changes in lens transparency should be specially considered when developing protective eyewear.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
