Does the Concentration of HA Matter in DED?

Dear Dr. Renukaprasad A R, How important is the concentration of hyaluronic acid (HA) in DED treatment? The corneal endothelium is coated with HA, an anionic glycosaminoglycan primarily present in connective tissue, vitreous humor, and aqueous humor. HA efficiently binds water, prevents dehydration, exhibits biocompatibility, stabilizes precorneal tear film, and enhances ocular surface irregularity. Therefore, HA plays a vital role as a lubricant component in treating DED. Typical formulations still contain 0.1% HA, while higher concentration HA formulations are also presented.
