SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Visit 3 (Day 6)

Population: Per protocol population (defined as all randomized subjects who had administered at least one drop of the appropriate study drug, demonstrated evidence of pathogenic bacteria levels, presented clinical signs of conjunctivitis at Visit 1, and returned for at least one post-first dose clinical assessment) with last observation carried forward.

Bacterial eradication is defined as eradication of the causative pathogens as indicated by the absence of growth (0 colony forming units/mL) of the original infecting organism(s).
