While strategies including limiting screen time exist, these may be ineffective given the widespread rise of digital device use and gaming culture in the modern era. There is limited evidence for the protective effect of lubricating eyedrops on the ocular surface for handheld console and computer gamers.\n\nThe aim of this study is to investigate the protective effect of a lubricating eyedrop (TheaLoz Duo) on the surface of the eyes in handheld console and computer gamers. The main question it aims to answer is whether TheaLoz Duo could protect the surface of the eyes from dessication and alleviate symptoms of dry eye disease in handheld console and computer gamers.\n\nParticipants will receive either the lubricating eyedrop first for 1 month, followed by a control condition (no eyedrops) for another month, or the other way round. Participants will attend 3 visits in total, each separated by 1 month apart. During each visit, routine clinical assessments of the front of the eye will be conducted. Subsequent findings from this timely study will help improve care of the surface of the eyes for a growing population of gamers worldwide.",[77,78],"Dry Eye Syndromes","Computer Vision Syndrome",[80,81,82],"Lubricating eyedrop","Artificial tears","Ocular surface","2026-01-19",{"date":85,"type":86},"2026-01-21","ACTUAL",{"date":88,"type":86},"2024-09-01",{"date":90,"type":71},"2026-12-30",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
