Summary

This study tested three different schedules of Lagricel Ofteno eye drops (a preservative-free lubricant) in 141 adults with mild to moderate dry eye. Participants used the drops either twice, four times, or six times daily for several weeks. The main goal was to see which schedule best improved eye discomfort and surface health, as measured by a standard questionnaire and tear break-up time. The study also tracked any side effects to ensure safety.
