Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Change from baseline (CFB) in total Corneal Fluorescein Staining (tCFS) at Day 57 [Baseline to Day 57]

    Corneal Fluorescein Staining (tCFS) is graded based on the NEI scale. The NEI scale divides the cornea in 5 subregions: central, inferior, superior, nasal, temporal. The score for each region ranges from 0-3; 0 corresponds to no staining, 3 corresponds to maximum staining. The total score is the sum of the 5 subregions ranging from 0-15.

  2. CFB of Dryness Score at Day 57 [Baseline to Day 57]

    Dryness Score is rated on a visual analogue scale (VAS) ranging from 0-100; 0 corresponds to no discomfort and 100 to maximum discomfort).
