Microbiota ocular y formas de disbiosis

La microbiota ocular juega un papel importante en el equilibrio del ecosistema ocular y en la protección contra la infección por patógenos externos.

Sin embargo, la alteración de la microbiota ocular, conocida como disbiosis, puede estar asociada a varias enfermedades oculares, como conjuntivitis, queratitis, uveítis y síndrome del ojo seco.

La disbiosis de la microbiota ocular puede ser causada por varios factores, incluido el uso de antibióticos, la cirugía ocular, la enfermedad diabética, la quimioterapia y el uso de lentes de contacto.

La disbiosis puede provocar una disminución de la diversidad microbiana y un aumento de la presencia de ciertos microorganismos, como los estafilococos.

La disbiosis de la microbiota ocular puede causar inflamación ocular y reducir la resistencia del ojo a las infecciones. Además, puede alterar la composición de la película lagrimal, aumentando la evaporación de las lágrima y provocar un síndrome de ojo seco.

La disbiosis de la microbiota ocular se puede tratar desde distintos enfoques terapéuticos, incluida la administración de probióticos, el uso de colirios antibióticos específicos, y la terapia de luz pulsada.

La elección del tratamiento depende de la causa subyacente de la disbiosis y de la gravedad de la patología ocular asociada.
