Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (3)
the change of Schirmer's test result (basic tear secretion in mm) from baseline to 12 months after operation
to compare the Schirmer's test between baseline and 12 months after operation. The higher Schirmer's test results, the better tear secretion function.
the Schirmer's test will be performed every three months until 12 months after operation
the change of ocular surface disease index (OSDI) ( ranged from 0-100) from baseline to 12 months after operation
to compare the OSDI between baseline and 12 months after operation. The higher the OSDI value, the worse of subjective ocular surface disease related symptoms.
the OSDI will be monitored every three months until 12 months
the change of chronic ocular complication score (COCS) ( ranged from 0-12) from baseline to 12 months after operation
to compare the COCS between baseline and 12 months after operation. The higher the COCS scores, the more ocular surface complications.
the COCS will be monitored every three months until 12 months after operation
Secondary Outcomes (1)
the change of conjunctival impression cytology scores (ranged from 0-5) from baseline to 12 months after operation
the impression cytology will be performed every three months until 12 months after operation
Study Arms (1)
Minor Salivary Gland Transplantation
EXPERIMENTALCicatrizing conjunctivitis patients that received minor salivary gland transplantation for dry eye treatment.
Interventions
The investigators will harvest the autologous labial salivary gland tissue and transplant to the upper and lower conjunctival fornix of the lesion eye.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- age 20-85 years old
- unilateral or bilateral cicatrizing conjunctivitis
- severe aqueous deficiency dry eye ( Schirmer I test result of less than 2mm)
- chronic ocular surface disease score (COCS) over 3 points
- Oxford scheme over grade III
You may not qualify if:
- active ocular infection
- active corneal melting
- severe xerostomia (modified Schirmer I test result of less than 25mm)
