Los Angeles Classification is used to grade the extension of changes in the oesophagus induced by reflux disease (Grade 0: normal aspect of mucosa; Grade A: ≥1 mucosal breaks no longer than 5 mm; Grade B: ≥1 mucosal breaks \>5 mm long; Grade C: mucosal breaks extending between tops of two or more mucosal folds but are \<75% of the circumference; Grade D: mucosal breaks ≥75% of the circumference). Healed defined as anything less than Grade A criteria. The shift table below summarizes the individual transitions in Los Angeles classification between Baseline (table columns) and Week 8 (table rows).

Visual Acuity was measured using the Snellen eye chart at a distance of 6 meters. Acuity is expressed as a ratio of the test distance (6 M) / the distance the average eye can see the letters on a certain line of the eye chart. Visual acuity of 1 is normal; an individual with acuity of 0.5 could only recognize an object at half the distance compared to an individual with normal acuity.

Adaptation is the ability of the eye to adjust to various levels of darkness and light. Normal and pathological status of adaptation without glare was defined as follows: * Normal status: Contrast between 1:0.05 and 1:23.5. * Pathological status: Contrast = 0 or contrast \> 1:23.5.

Adaptation is the ability of the eye to adjust to various levels of darkness and light. Normal and pathological status of adaptation with glare was defined as follows: * Normal status: Contrast between 1:0.05 and 1:23.5. * Pathological status: Contrast = 0 or contrast \> 1:23.5. The shift table below summarizes the individual transitions in the classification of adaptation with glare between Baseline (depicted in the columns) and Year 5 (depicted in the rows).
