Brief Summary:
Dry eye disease (DED) is a common, multifactorial ocular surface condition with increasing worldwide prevalence. DED induces a significant burden to the patients. Inflammatory responses involving the ocular surface including the adnexa, conjunctiva and cornea are recognized as central to its pathophysiology, as supported by in vitro, non-clinical and clinical studies. Although tear substitutes remain the mainstay of initial management, in some patients this is not sufficient to control ocular surface inflammation and associated symptoms. A new medical product (Vevizye® eye drops) has been recently approved for the treatment of DED. It contains cyclosporine 0.1% as an active ingredient and pefluorobutylpentane as vehicle. Topical cyclosporine is a well-established treatment for patients with moderate to severe DED who do not achieve sufficient clinical benefit from topical lubricants alone. Perfluorobutylpentane has been found to improve the bioavailability of cyclosporine and has a long residence time for up to 8 hours. In addition, because of its low surface tension facilitates quick and uniform spreading improving the tear film layer. The FOCUS study aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy of 0.1% cyclosporine eye drops solution (Vevizye®, Laboratoires THEA) in patients with moderate to severe DED characterized by ocular surface inflammation.
