New eye drop combo aims to soothe dry eyes fast
NCT ID NCT07553455
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether using two eye drops together—Vevye (cyclosporine) and Flarex (a steroid)—can safely improve symptoms in adults with moderate to severe dry eye disease. Sixty participants will use Vevye twice daily and Flarex four times daily for one month. The goal is to see if the combination offers better relief than either drop alone.
