Comparison of Short-Term Effects of Diquafosol and Rebamipide on Mucin 5AC Level on the Rabbit Ocular Surface

Abstract

These data indicated that more PAS-positive MUC5AC was released into the tear fluid from the goblet cells by diquafosol than by rebamipide. There is a difference in the induction pattern of MUC5AC into the tears from the goblet cells between these eye drops.
