研究概览
简要总结
To evaluate the tolerability and preliminary efficacy of Brimonidine eye drops (with and without corticosteroid eye drops) for the treatment of Dry Eye Disease (DED).
详细描述
Subjects will assess their tolerance to the administration of the study drug, utilizing a Visual Analog Scale (VAS). The VAS is a 100-mm horizontal line with verbal descriptors at either end. The VAS ratings will be completed after administration of the study drug on Day 1 (post-dose), Day 28, Day 56, Day 84, and Day 105. Subjects will place a single slash mark across the horizontal line between the end labeled "completely intolerable" (0 mm) and "easily tolerable" (100mm).

主要结局
Tolerance of Test Substance Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Score
时间窗: Days 1, 28, 56, and 84
Participants assessed their tolerance to the administration of the study drug, utilizing a VAS. The VAS is a 100-mm horizontal line with verbal descriptors at either end. Participants placed a single slash mark across the horizontal line between the end labeled "completely intolerable" (0 mm) and "easily tolerable" (100mm).
