Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. At least 18 years of age at the time of consent
2. Able to provide written voluntary informed consent

1. Subject-reported history of DED in at least 1 eye for at least 6 months prior to Visit 1
2. Tear-film break-up time ≤5 seconds at Visit 1
3. Total corneal fluorescein staining score ≥4 and ≤11 (ie, sum of inferior, superior, central, nasal, and temporal) according to the National Eye Institute scale at Visit 1
4. Total meibomian gland dysfunction score ≥3 (range, 0-15)
5. Unanesthetized Schirmer's test I score ≥5 mm
4. Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) ≥25 at Visit 1
5. Able and willing to follow instructions, including participation in all trial assessments and visits.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Had received Miebo as a prescription or as a study treatment in previous Miebo clinical studies
2. Have any clinically significant ocular surface slit lamp findings at Visit 1 and/or, in the opinion of the Investigator, have any findings that could interfere with trial parameters, including:

1. History of eye trauma
2. History of Stevens-Johnson syndrome
3. Active blepharitis or lid margin inflammation
4. DED secondary to scarring, irradiation, alkali burns, cicatricial pemphigoid, or destruction of conjunctival goblet cells (as with vitamin A deficiency)
5. Abnormal lid anatomy causing incomplete eyelid closure
6. Abnormal cornea shape (keratoconus)
7. Corneal epithelial defect or significant confluent or filaments
8. History of herpetic keratitis
9. Pterygium
10. Ocular or periocular rosacea
3. Use of any of the following ocular therapies within 60 days prior to Visit 1: Vuity®, any topical ocular steroid treatments, prescription dry eye therapy including varenicline nasal spray, or topical anti-glaucoma medication
4. Had a LipiFlow® procedure, intense pulse light procedure, or any kind of other procedure affecting meibomian glands within 6 months prior to Visit 1
5. Had received or removed a permanent punctum plug within 3 months (6 months for dissolvable plugs) prior to Visit 1
6. Use of any eye drops (prescription or over-the counter, such as artificial tears or Lumify®) and/or TrueTear™ device (intranasal tear neurostimulator) within 24 hours prior to Visit 1
7. Have active ocular allergies or ocular allergies that are expected to be active during the trial period.
8. Have worn contact lenses within 1 month prior to Visit 1 or planned wear during the study.
9. Have undergone intraocular surgery or ocular laser surgery within 3 months prior to Visit 1; have undergone refractive surgery within 2 years prior to Visit 1
10. Have active ocular or systemic infection (bacterial, viral, or fungal), including fever.
11. Female subjects who are pregnant, nursing, or planning a pregnancy
12. Female subjects of childbearing potential who are not using an acceptable means of birth control; acceptable methods of contraception include hormonal (oral, implantable, injectable, or transdermal) contraception; mechanical (spermicide in conjunction with a barrier such as a diaphragm or condom) contraception; intrauterine device; or surgical sterilization of partner. For non-sexually active female subjects, abstinence may be regarded as an adequate method of birth control; however, if the subject becomes sexually active during the trial, she must agree to use adequate birth control as defined above for the remainder of the trial.
13. Have an uncontrolled systemic disease that, in the opinion of the Investigator, will interfere with the trial
14. Have a known allergy and/or sensitivity to the study treatment
15. Use of any oral medications known to cause ocular drying (eg, antihistamines, antidepressants, etc.) on a non-stable regimen within 1 month prior to Visit 1 or is expected to be unstable during the trial
16. Have taken isotretinoin (eg, Accutane, Myorisan, Claravis, Amnesteem) within 6 months prior to Visit 1
17. Have corrected visual acuity (VA) worse than or equal to +0.7 logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR), as assessed with Snellen chart at Visit 1
18. Are currently enrolled in an investigational drug or device study or had used an investigational drug or device within 60 days prior to Visit 1.
