Sponsor's own description

The goal of this retrospective study is to evaluate the historical effectiveness of Riboflavin-Enhanced Hyaluronic Acid Eye Drops (HAr® 0.1%) in the treatment of Dry Eye Disease (DED) among patients. The product under investigation, Ribohyal®, had previously obtained certification and authorization from the relevant notified body for market sale (European patent n. 2228058) The primary questions it aimed to address were: * Did the use of Riboflavin-Enhanced Hyaluronic Acid Eye Drops result in a reduction of dry eye symptoms and an improvement in ocular comfort among patients with DED in a historical context? * Was Riboflavin-Enhanced Hyaluronic Acid Eye Drops historically more effective in reducing photophobia and enhancing tear film stability when compared to standard treatment? Participants in this retrospective analysis had historically: * Used either Riboflavin-Enhanced Hyaluronic Acid Eye Drops or a standard hyaluronic acid eye drop, based on their assigned group. * Historically reported their levels of ocular discomfort and photophobia at specified time points. * Undergone historical clinical examinations to assess tear film stability and osmolarity. Researchers conducted a retrospective analysis to compare the historical outcomes of the group using Riboflavin-Enhanced Hyaluronic Acid Eye Drops with the group using standard eye drops to determine if the former historically provided more significant improvements in dry eye symptoms and tear film stability.
