Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: Lumify Eye Drop

Participants will be randomized to receive a single drop of Lumify to either the left or right eye.

Drug: Brimonidine tartrate ophthalmic solution 0.025%
One time dosing of brimonidine tartrate ophthalmic solution 0.025% (1 drop applied to ocular surface)
Other Names:
  • Lumify
  • Active Comparator: Saline Solution Eye Drop

    Participants will be randomized to receive a single drop of sterile balanced saline solution to either the left or right eye.

    Other: Sterile balanced saline solution
    One time dosing of sterile balanced saline solution (1 drop applied to ocular surface)

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Palpebral Fissure Height [Baseline, 5, 15 and 30 minutes after application]

      Objective measurement of distance between inner margin of upper and lower eyelids from clinical photographs.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Intraocular Pressure [Baseline, 5, 15 and 30 minutes after application]

      Measurement of intraocular pressure using handheld Tono-Pen(tm) tonometer

    2. Eye Redness [Baseline, 5, 15 and 30 minutes after application]

      Eye redness will be reported as the number of participants achieving a score of ocular redness from clinical photographs as 0 (none), 1 (mild), 2 (moderate) and 3 (severe).

    3. Eye Discomfort [Baseline, 5, 15 and 30 minutes after application]

      Eye discomfort will be reported as the number of participants reporting subjective ocular discomfort score from 0 (none), 1 (mild), 2 (mild) and 3 (severe).
