The primary purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of KPI-121 0.25% ophthalmic suspension compared to vehicle (placebo) in subjects who have a documented clinical diagnosis of dry eye disease. The product will be studied over 14 days, with 1-2 drops instilled in each eye four times daily (QID).

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Change From Baseline/Visit 2 (Day 1) in Bulbar Conjunctival Hyperemia at Visit 4 (Day 15) [Baseline/Visit 2 (Day 1) - Visit 4 (Day 15)]

      Comparison of mean change from baseline for bulbar conjunctival hyperemia in the study eye between the KPI-121 0.25% ophthalmic suspension group and the vehicle group using a 0-4 grading scale. The grading scale was based on the Cornea and Contact Lens Research Unit Grading Scale where 0 = none, 1 = very slight, 2 = slight, 3 = moderate and 4 = severe.

    2. Change From Baseline/Visit 2 (Day 1) in Ocular Discomfort Severity at Visit 4 (Day 15) [Baseline/Visit 2 (Day 1) - Visit 4 (Day 15)]

      Comparison of mean ocular discomfort between the KPI-121 0.25% ophthalmic suspension group and the vehicle group using a 0-100 visual analog grading scale where 0 was better and 100 was worse.
