    Abstract
    Silicon plugs alone or after temporary collagen plugs are effective for alleviating moderate to severe dry-eye symptoms in adults in whom topical or systemic medical treatments have failed. Reported adverse effects include tear overflow, inflammation, and spontaneous plug loss. (SOR: B, based on 2 small RCTs and an evidence-based guideline of descriptive studies.)
