Comparing Tear Proteomics Profile in Dry Eye Disease pre-and Post-treatment With Low Level Light Therapy


Sponsor

Singapore National Eye Centre

Enrollment

30 participants

Start Date

Nov 5, 2025

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The purpose of this research study is to understand the mechanism of action of low level light therapy and also potentially yield markers associated with good treatment response. Low-level light therapy is light-based treatment delivered through advance eye-light device. This therapy uses light energy to provide energy to the meibomian gland cells to slow down age-ing, improve tear stability and reduce inflammation.
