Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Corneal Staining Total ScoreBaseline (Day 0), Day 45, Day 90

The type (severity) of staining was assessed for each of the 5 regions of the cornea (central, inferior, temporal, superior, and nasal) and graded on a 4-point scale, where 0 = Normal (No staining) and 3 = Severe (Numerous coalescent macropunctate areas and/or patches). The scores of the 5 regions were summed to obtain a corneal staining total score for each eye (minimum 0, maximum 15).
