Dell Laser Consultants begins study on corneal nerve regeneration after LASIK surgery. DLC will be part of a large multi-center randomized double blind study to assess the effect of Restasis ophthalmic solution on corneal nerve regeneration. This study may have implications far beyond LASIK including corneal disease treatments and other surgeries.
Restasis is commonly used after LASIK surgery to decrease dry eye symptoms. Some scientists believe that it may additionally increase corneal nerve regeneration. This study aims to add some clarity to this speculation.
