Proteomics Analysis of Human Tears in the Diagnosis and Management of Dry Eye Disease
Sponsor: The Hong Kong Polytechnic University
Summary
In this study, the initial tear proteome profiles in Dry Eye Disease (DED) patients, the safety and effectiveness of using an EC certificate DED treatment device in DED management, together with the associated global tear proteome changes, will be investigated.

The Rexon-Eye, an electrotherapy device utilizing Quantum Molecular Resonance (QMR) technology
The device has received EC certification as a medical device for the treatment of ocular surface disorders. It will deliver a low-intensity alternating electrical current (ranging from 4 MHz to 64 MHz) to targeted biological tissue via contact electrodes. Previous studies have shown the effectiveness of this treatment in alleviating dry eye symptoms, both subjectively and objectively.
