Anti-infiammatori non steroidei: Utilizzo topico nel trattamento della xeroftalmia secondaria a sindrome di Sjogren

: The authors, in a case-control study, analyzed the topical application of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (flurbiprofene drops) in patients affected by keratoconjunctivitis sicca in Sjogren's syndrome. The variation of break-up-time values, and xerophthalmia grade were analyzed. A mild increase of mean values of break-up-time (two seconds in the treated group), and a mild decrease of xerophthalmia grade were found.
