CHARACTERIZATION OF THE OCULAR SURFACE MICROBIOME IN THE REGION OF EPIRUS AND MACEDONIA (GREECE)

详细说明
Evidence suggests that the ocular surface microbiome of patients using preserved glaucoma eye drops differs from that of healthy individuals. These microbial changes have been linked to both the glaucoma treatment itself and the presence of preservatives, particularly benzalkonium chloride (BAK), in the eye drops. However, existing studies have primarily assessed these differences by comparing treated glaucoma patients to healthy controls, rather than examining changes within the same individuals over time.
The aim of this study is to evaluate how glaucoma medications containing the preservative benzalkonium chloride affect the ocular surface microbiome in the same patients before and after the initiation of therapy.
