Study Arms (3)

Dry eye syndrome (DES)

EXPERIMENTAL

Dry eye syndrome (DES) will received Chinese herbal tea VGHTPE-DESJS-1 8 weeks on Nourishing Yin and Moistening Dryness the ocular dryness evaluation. And we could use the Schirmer's test, Tear breakup time, Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI), EULAR Sjogren's Syndrome Patient Reported Index (ESSPRI), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Ford Insomnia Response to Stress Test (FIRST), cytokine markers, Whole-genome genotyping, TCM pattern, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) tongue diagnosis, TCM pulse diagnosis, and TCM heart rate variability for this purpose.

Other: Chinese herbal tea VGH-DESJS-1

Sjögren's syndrome (SJS)

EXPERIMENTAL

Sjögren's syndrome (SJS) will received Chinese herbal tea VGHTPE-DESJS-1 8 weeks on Nourishing Yin and Moistening Dryness the ocular dryness evaluation. And we could use the Schirmer's test, Tear breakup time, Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI), EULAR Sjogren's Syndrome Patient Reported Index (ESSPRI), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Ford Insomnia Response to Stress Test (FIRST), cytokine markers, Whole-genome genotyping, TCM pattern, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) tongue diagnosis, TCM pulse diagnosis, and TCM heart rate variability for this purpose.

Other: Chinese herbal tea VGH-DESJS-1

Non DES SJS Healthy Controls (NHC)

EXPERIMENTAL

Non DES SJS Healthy Controls (NHC) will received Chinese herbal tea VGHTPE-DESJS-1 8 weeks on Nourishing Yin and Moistening Dryness the ocular dryness evaluation. And we could use the Schirmer's test, Tear breakup time, Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI), EULAR Sjogren's Syndrome Patient Reported Index (ESSPRI), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Ford Insomnia Response to Stress Test (FIRST), cytokine markers, Whole-genome genotyping, TCM pattern, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) tongue diagnosis, TCM pulse diagnosis, and TCM heart rate variability for this purpose.
