Essential fatty acids in the treatment of dry eye syndrome: A myth or reality?

Ammar M Al Mahmood1, Samar A Al-Swailem2.   

Abstract

Dry eye is a common condition that can severely impair the quality of life. Systemic and topical omega-3 fatty acids and omega-6 fatty acids have been used as treatment for patients with dry eye disease and showed promising results. Further multicenter randomized controlled trials are required in order to establish a standardized protocol for the treatment of dry eye syndrome with those essential fatty acids.
