To determine and compare the effectiveness of autologous serum against artificial tears in the treatment of dry eye according to Schirmer test, TBUT and OSDI. Material and Methods. An analytical, observational prospective cohort study performed at Belen’s Hospital of Trujillo was conducted in July 2013 - June 2014. Our study population was limited to 64 patients with dry eye, being considered 32 patients in each cohort. Artificial tears (sodium hyaluronate 0.4%) were applied to the first cohort, and 20% serum autologous to the second cohort. The chi square test was used to establish the relationship between qualitative variables taken into account: The types of treatment and treatment effectiveness. To compare the effectiveness between the two types of treatment comparison test of proportions was applied. Results. The average age of patients treated was 59.4 years (range 45-90 years) with a standard deviation of 9.51 years. The distribution of patients by sex was: Female 49 (77%) male and 15 (23%). There was an improvement with the use of autologous serum according Schirmer 62.5% and 68.75% according TBUT; while with the use of artificial tears there was an improvement according Schirmer 18.75% and 12.5% according TBUT. The effectiveness of treatment with autologous serum as OSDI was mild 75%, moderate: 18.75% and severe: 6.25%; whereas treatment with artificial tears was mild: 15.62%, moderate: 46.88% and severe: 37.5%. The overall effectiveness as treatments was as follows: 65.62% in patients treated with autologous serum and 34.38% in patients treated with artificial tears. Conclusions. Autologous serum is more effective than artificial tears in the treatment of dry eye.
