PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Visit 3 (Days 6-7)

Population: Per protocol population (defined as all randomized participants who had administered at least one drop of study drug, who had eye cultures indicating pathogenic bacteria levels as well as the clinical signs of conjunctivitis at Visit 1 and had at least one post first dose clinical assessment) with last observation carried forward.

Clinical Resolution is defined as absence of all three clinical signs: ocular discharge, bulbar conjunctival injection, and palpebral conjunctival injection.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Visit 3 (Day 6-7)

Population: Per protocol population (defined as all randomized participants who had administered at least one drop of study drug, who had eye cultures indicating pathogenic bacteria levels as well as the clinical signs of conjunctivitis at Visit 1 and had at least one post first dose clinical assessment) with last observation carried forward.

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