PURPOSE: This clinical investigation compared the performance and safety of Eyestil Plus® (SIFI) and Vismed Multi® (TRB Chemedica) for reducing keratitis lesions in moderate-to-severe dry eye disease (DED) patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This was a randomised, double-blind, multicentre investigation. 96 adults (>
18 years of age) with moderate-to-severe DED received Eyestil Plus® ( RESULTS: 96 participants were randomised to receive the clinical investigations' treatments, 82.3% of them were female and their mean age was 65.8 years. The non-inferiority of Eyestil Plus® for moderate-to-severe DED was demonstrated at 1 month. No statistical difference was found for any of the study's objectives: change at 1 and 3 months of the global corneal and conjunctival staining score ( CONCLUSION: This clinical investigation showed the non-inferiority of Eyestil Plus® compared to Vismed Multi® regarding performance and safety in a moderate-to-severe DED population.
