Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this study is to compare Systane® ULTRA lubricant eye drops to OPTIVE® lubricating eye drops for ocular surface staining within dry eye subjects and to evaluate the safety of Systane® ULTRA after 3 months of use.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Following a 2-week washout phase with saline eye drops, subjects were randomized to receive either Systane® ULTRA or OPTIVE® for the remainder of the study.
