Abstract in brief

This study reviewed clinical trials up to March 2023 to see if honey-based treatments help with dry eye disease (DED).
The results showed that honey treatments significantly improved key symptoms and signs of DED, like tear film stability, eye dryness, and corneal health, over an average follow-up of about 7 weeks.
However, when comparing honey treatments directly to control groups, there was no significant difference, suggesting honey might be beneficial but not necessarily more effective than other treatments.]
