次要结局
- Safety endpoints: - Objective ocular signs (palpebral edema, chemosis, conjunctival hyperemia, conjunctival discharge, follico-papillary conjunctivitis, corneal staining punctuations, anterior chamber cells, flare) and other objective ocular signs, assessed by slit lamp examination (SLE) or binocular indirect ophthalmoscopy (BIO), will be graded according to the following scale: 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe.
- Safety endpoint: Adverse events occurrence throughout the study
- Safety endpoints: Product global tolerance will be graded by the Investigator by answering the following question “How do you consider the study product global tolerance” using the following scale: 0=very unsatisfactory, 1=unsatisfactory, 2= satisfactory, 3=very satisfactory.
