Vision-Related Quality of Life and Dry Eye Symptoms After Treatment with Lyophilized Amniotic Membrane Eye Drops: A Secondary Analysis of a Prospective Cohort Study

Background/Objectives: Dry eye disease (DED) affects daily visual functioning and vision-related quality of life in addition to tear film stability and ocular surface integrity. In a previously published prospective cohort, lyophilized amniotic membrane (AM) eye drops were associated with significant improvements in objective ocular surface parameters. This secondary analysis evaluated whether treatment with lyophilized AM eye drops was accompanied by changes in patient-reported outcomes, specifically vision-related quality of life and dry eye symptoms.
