Squamous Metaplasia: Why Artificial Tears?

Docplexus - Community of 380,000+ Doctors

Hi Renukaprasad A R, Squamous metaplasia is a condition involving corneal and conjunctival damage caused by worsening dry eye disease (DED). It mainly manifests as loss of conjunctival cells and adversely affects the tear film and ocular surface, resulting in morphological changes, loss of goblet cells, or altered goblet cell function. Therefore, the severity of DED determines the degree of squamous metaplasia. Polyethylene glycol-propylene glycol/hydroxypropyl guar (PEG-PG/HPG) eyedrop is an artificial tear formulation that provides symptomatic relief and ocular surface protection for patients. Here is an article discussing squamous metaplasia and the efficacy of artificial tears in treating the condition among DED patients based on evidence from a study.
