Effect of Artificial Tears on Visual Acuity

Conclusions
Refresh Plus Eye Drops provides a temporary yet significant improvement in the visual acuity of dry eye patients. The effect of artificial tears on visual acuity may be of diagnostic value in detecting ocular surface abnormality in symptomatic and asymptomatic patients.
