NCT06573606

Brief Summary

Data analyses and revision of the DED symptoms in diabetic subjects. A novel ophthalmic solution containing cross-linked ha (CX-HA) and Chondroitin sulphate (CS) has been made available on the market. Both molecules have been widely studied for their viscoelastic and hydrating properties. Nevertheless, the use of CS in ophthalmology has been limited since, routinely, the molecule is of animal origins. This new ophthalmic solution is the first on the market formulated with a CS of non-animal origin.
