SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, 1 month, 2 months

Population: One eye per participant in each Arm

Conjunctival hyperemia is the amount of redness on the white part of the eye. A total score was obtained by the sum of assessments in 6 areas of each eye are which are scored from 0 to 3 (0 = no redness; 3 = severe redness), then summed per eye for a total score range of 0-18 (0 = no redness; 18 = severe redness).

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, 1 month, 2 months

Ocular Surface Disease Index Scores (OSDI) were obtained from a 12-item validated OSDI questionnaire completed by each participant. This is an assessment related to eye comfort. Each question's score ranges from 0 = no disability to 4 = greatest disability. The total score is multiplied by 25 then divided by the number of questions answered then matched to a grid ranging from 0 to 100 with 0 having symptoms reported none of the time versus 100 having disability symptoms reported all of the time.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, 1 month, 2 months

Population: One eye from each patient per arm.

Corneal staining is an indication of the amount of dryness of the cornea (front clear part of the eye). A total score was obtained by the sum of assessments in five areas of each eye which are scored from 0 to 3 (0 = no dryness; 3 = severe dryness), then summed per eye for a total score range of 0-15 (0 = no dryness; 15 = severe dryness).
