研究组 & 干预措施
Treatment
Subjects receive topical spironolactone ophthalmic solution, 0.005 mg/cc four times a day for 4 weeks.
干预措施: Topical spironolactone ophthalmic solution, 0.005 mg/cc (Drug)
Placebo
Subjects receive topical spironolactone vehicle as placebo four times a day for 4 weeks.
干预措施: Placebo (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Change from Baseline to Week 4 in the Symptom Assessment Questionnaire Dry Eye (SANDE) score.
时间窗: Baseline to Week 4
The SANDE score is calculated by taking the square root of the product of the severity of symptoms score and the frequency of symptoms score. The SANDE scale ranges from 0 to 100 with 100 being the maximal amount of dry eye symptoms and 0 being the minimal amount or absence of dry eye symptoms.
次要结局
- Change from Baseline to Week 4 in the corneal fluorescein staining(Baseline to Week 4)
