Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in Fluorescein Corneal Staining (FCS) Score From BaselineBaseline, Weeks4

FCS indicates the damage to the corneal epithelium. Per the National Eye Institute/Industry Workshop report, the cornea was divided into 5 fractions, each of which was given a staining score from 0 to 3, and the total score was calculated (0-15). 0 is better. Noninferiority for change from baseline in the FCS score (LOCF) was determined by comparing the noninferiority margin (0.4) with the upper limit of the 95% confidence interval (CI) of the difference between the 2 treatment groups

Change in Lissamine Green Conjunctival Staining (LGCS) Score From BaselineBaseline, Weeks4

LGCS indicates the damage to the conjunctival epithelium. Per the National Eye Institute/Industry Workshop report, the conjunctiva was divided into 6 fractions, each of which was given a staining sdore from 0 to 3, and the total score was calculated (0-18). 0 is better. Superiority was verified by comparing t-test results for change from baseline in the LGCS score (LOCF) between 2 treatment groups.
