    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Ocular Itching at Baseline (Day 0) [3, 5, 7 minutes post-CAC]

      A baseline CAC was performed on Day 0. Post-CAC ocular itching from Day 0 will be compared to post-CAC ocular itching, post-instillation, on Day 6, Day 7, Day 27 and Day 28. Ocular itching was assessed by the patient on a 0-4 scale (0=none to 4=severe). Average of ocular itching score over both eyes was analyzed.

      Post-CAC ocular itching from Day 0 will be compared to post-CAC ocular itching, post-instillation, on Day 6. Ocular itching was assessed by the patient on a 0-4 scale (0=none to 4=severe). Average of ocular itching score over both eyes was analyzed.

    3. Ocular Itching at Day 7 [3, 5, 7 minutes post-CAC]

      Post-CAC ocular itching from Day 0 will be compared to post-CAC ocular itching, post-instillation, on Day 7. Ocular itching was assessed by the patient on a 0-4 scale (0=none to 4=severe). Average of ocular itching score over both eyes was analyzed.

    4. Ocular Itching at Day 27 [3, 5, 7 minutes post-CAC]

    9. Ocular Redness at Day 27 [7, 15, 20 minutes post-CAC]

      Post-CAC ocular redness from Day 0 will be compared to post-CAC ocular redness, post-instillation, on Day 27. Ocular redness was assessed by the patient on a 0-4 scale (0=none to 4=severe). Average of ocular redness score over both eyes was analyzed.

    10. Ocular Redness at Day 28 [7, 15, 20 minutes post-CAC]

      Post-CAC ocular redness from Day 0 will be compared to post-CAC ocular redness, post-instillation, on Day 28. Ocular redness was assessed by the patient on a 0-4 scale (0=none to 4=severe). Average of ocular redness score over both eyes was analyzed.
