Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To study the clinical effects of Yangyin Runmu Pill in the treatment of dry eye disease.

And the curative effects of two groups were to be compared after 20 days of treatment. RESULTS The total effective rates of the treatment group and the control group were 86.7% and 63.3% respectively, with a statistical significance(P<0.05). In the treatment group, Schirmer test(SIT) showed an obvious increase of lacrimal secretion and also the tear break-up time(BUT) was extended obviously after treatment, which displayed a significant difference from those before the treatment as well as those in the control group of the same period(P<0.01).
