Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Phase IV, randomized, double-masked, parallel-group clinical trial comparing the ocular tolerability and steroid-induced intraocular pressure (IOP) effects of Zylet wth that of TobraDex in healthy volunteers, when either product was administered QID (at approximately 4-hour intervals) for 28 days.
