Figures & data

Table 1. Demographic characteristics between groups.

Figure 1. Time-dependent change of inflammatory markers and dry eye metrics. BR: bulbar redness, LR: limbal redness, OSDI: ocular surface disease index, TMH: tear meniscus height, NIBUT-1: noninvasive tear film break-up time first, NIBUT-a: noninvasive tear film break-up time average, FBUT: fluorescein tear film break-up time, CFS: corneal fluorescein staining score using the Oxford scheme; *statistically significant difference from preoperative value, #statistically significant difference between groups.
