Hyaluronic Acid as an Alternative to Autologous Human Serum Eye Drops: Initial Clinical Results with High-Molecular-Weight Hyaluronic Acid Eye Drops.

Introduction: Autologous serum eye drops (ASED) are used in the treatment of most severe stages of dry eye. Once introduced, it is currently considered impossible to return to other lubricating eye drops or other commercially available therapeutic regimen.

Materials And Methods: In a randomized study, non-preserved high-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid eye drops were offered as an alternative to 11 patients using autologous serum treatment for at least 3 months.
