See below for further details on each of these improvements

Significant Improvement in

TEAR OSMOLARITY

Reduction of 19.4 mOsm/ L

At the 6-week follow-up, a significant reduction from baseline was measured in tear film osmolarity in the omega-3 group (−16.8 ± 2.6 mOsm/L) versus control group (−9.0 ± 2.7 mOsm/L, P = 0.042), which further decreased from baseline at 12 weeks in the omega-3 group (−19.4 ± 2.7 mOsm/L) versus control group (−8.3 ± 2.8 mOsm/L, P = 0.004).

Significant Improvement in

TEAR BREAK-UP TIME

3.5 second increase

TBUT showed a significant improvement during the 12 weeks in the omega-3 group. At 6 weeks, there was a trend toward TBUT improvement in the omega-3 group, which was not statistically significant (P = 0.126), but the difference between the groups was significant at the 12-week visit (P = 0.002).

Significant Improvement in

OSDI

50% drop in score

Both groups had similar OSDI symptom scores at baseline. At 12 weeks, OSDI symptom scores in the omega-3 group dropped from 32.4 ± 19.2 to 15.5 ± 11.0 versus 27.1 ± 22.9 to 22.0 ± 19.3 in the control group (P = 0.002).
