Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: Single treatment

A single treatment will be administered for both eyes for each subject. The treatment will be administered for 11 minutes per treated eye.

Device: Viveye OMNS treatment
The Viveye OMNS treatment ( ~30 min) will be applied once, during the treatment visit only

Sham Comparator: Single sham treatment

A single treatment will be administered for both eyes for each subject. The treatment will be administered for 11 minutes per treated eye.

Device: Viveye OMNS sham treatment
The Viveye OMNS sham treatment ( ~30 min) will be applied once, during the treatment visit only

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) [12 weeks]

    Frequency of treatment related deterioration in BCVA

  2. Intraocular Pressure (IOP) [12 weeks]

    IOP results will be summarized descriptively. 95% confidence intervals for the difference between treatment arms at each visit will be presented, assuming t-distribution.

  3. Slit lamp biomicroscopy [12 weeks]

    The percent related to worsening in ocular pathological changes observed

  4. Rate of device/treatment related adverse events [12 weeks]

    Rate of device/treatment related Incidence of Adverse events (AE) will be presented in tabular form by seriousness, severity and relation to treatment

  5. Fluorescein corneal staining [12 weeks]

    Change from baseline in fluorescein corneal staining score (NEI Scale 0-15) per treatment arm and visit (lower scores mean a better outcome.)

  6. Ocular discomfort questionnaires [12 weeks]

    Change from baseline in ocular discomfort questionnaires (Standard Patient Evaluation of Eye Dryness - SPEED) per treatment arm and visit. score from 0 to 28, higher scores mean a worse outcome. (Reduction in SUM score = improvement)
