`
`The present methods are useful
`
`in treating any suitable condition which is
`
`therapeutically sensitive to or treatable with cyclosporin components Such conditions
`
`preferably are ophthalmic or ocular conditions that is relating to or having to do with one
`
`or more parts of an eye of human or animal
`
`Included among such conditions are
`
`without limitation dry eye syndrome phacoanaphyl actic endophthalmitis uveitis vernal
`
`conjunctivitis atopic keratoconjunctivitis corneal graft rejection and the like conditions
`
`The present invention is particularly effective in treating dry eye syndrome Cyclosporin
`sicca KCS
`
`has been found as effective in treating immune mediated keratoconjunctivitis
`
`or dry eye disease in patient suffering therefrom The activity of cyclosporins is as an
`
`immunosuppressant and in the enhancement or restoring of lacrimal gland tearing Other
`
`conditions that can be treated with cyclosporin components include an absolute or partial
`deficiency in aqueous tear production keratoconjunctivitis sicca or KCS Topical
`
`administration to
`
`patients tear deficient eye can increase tear production in the eye The
`
`treatment can further serve to correct corneal and conjunctival disorders exacerbated by
`
`tear deficiency and KCS such as corneal scarring corneal ulceration inflammation of
`
`the cornea or conjunctiva
`
`filamentary keratisis mucopurulent discharge and
`
`vascularization of the cornea
