简要总结
Hypothesis: Fluorometholone (FML) 0.1% eyedrops topically applied 4 times a day for 22 days is more efficient than artificial tears (Liquifilm) in dry eye disease (DED) and ameliorates the worsening of the disease after exposure to an adverse controlled environment.
详细描述
There will be 4 visits in 3 different days:
Visit 1 (V1). Inclusion in normalized controlled environment (NCE)
Visit 2 (V2). 21 days post-treatment. Data collected in NCE
Visit 3 (V3). 21 days post-treatment. Data collected in adverse controlled environment (ACE)
Visit 4 (V4). 22 days post-treatment. Recovery visit in ACE. Data collected in NCE
