Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Change From Baseline in Global Ocular Staining Score in the Study Eye	Global ocular staining of the study eye was graded from 0 to 15 and was the sum of corneal fluorescein staining severity, nasal conjunctiva lissamine green staining severity, and temporal conjunctiva lissamine green staining severity. Staining of the cornea followed ocular administration of fluorescein dye and was graded on a 6-point scale (0=no staining to 5=diffuse staining). Staining of the conjunctiva followed ocular administration of lissamine green dye and was graded on a 6-point scale (0=no staining to 5=diffuse staining). Conjunctival staining was evaluated in two zones, nasal and temporal.	Baseline, Day 35
Secondary	Change From Baseline in Global Ocular Staining Score in the Study Eye	Global ocular staining of the study eye was graded from 0 to 15 and was the sum of corneal fluorescein staining severity, nasal conjunctiva lissamine green staining severity, and temporal conjunctiva lissamine green staining severity. Staining of the cornea followed ocular administration of fluorescein dye and was graded on a 6-point scale (0=no staining to 5=diffuse staining). Staining of the conjunctiva followed ocular administration of lissamine green dye and was graded on a 6-point scale (0=no staining to 5=diffuse staining). Conjunctival staining was evaluated in two zones, nasal and temporal.	Baseline, Month 3
Secondary	Change From Baseline in Ocular Surface Disease Index© (OSDI) Score	The OSDI is a 12-question survey for patients to document their dry eye disease symptoms on a 5-point scale (0=none of the time and 4=all of the time). Higher scores represent greater disability. Scores are totaled over the 12 questions and converted to a score of 0-100 (0=no disability and 100=complete disability). A negative number change from baseline represents an improvement and a positive number change from baseline represents a worsening.	Baseline, Day 35
Secondary	Change From Baseline in the Schirmer Test in the Study Eye	The Schirmer's Test measures the rate of secretion of tears produced by the study eye over 5 minutes. The results indicate the presence of dry eye (Normal = greater than or equal to 10 millimeters (mm) of tears, Dry Eye = less than 10 mm of tears). The smaller the number, the more severe the dry eye. A positive number change from baseline indicates an increase in tears (improvement) and a negative number change from baseline indicates a decrease in tears (worsening).	Baseline, Day 35
Secondary	Subject Assessment of Dry Eye Symptoms on a 5-Point Scale	Subjects assess dry eye symptoms on a 5-point scale (none, mild, moderate, severe, very severe).	Baseline, Day 35, Month 3
Secondary	Subject Global Assessment of Treatment Efficacy on a 5-Point Scale	Subjects assess global treatment efficacy compared to baseline on a 5-point scale (much worse, worse, about the same, improved, much improved).	Baseline, Day 35, Month 3
Secondary	Subject Assessment of Treatment Acceptability on a 5-Point Scale	Subjects assess treatment acceptability (likability and comfort) on a 5-point scale (strongly agree, agree, neither agree nor disagree, disagree, strongly disagree).	Day 35
Secondary	Investigator Global Assessment of Treatment Efficacy on a 4-Point Scale	Investigators assess global treatment efficacy on a 4-point scale (very satisfactory, satisfactory, poor, very poor).	Day 35, Month 3
Secondary	Change From Baseline in Tear Break-up Time (TBUT) in the Study Eye	TBUT is the time required for dry spots to appear on the surface of the eye after blinking in the worse eye. The longer it takes, the more stable the tear film. A short TBUT is a sign of poor tear film. A positive number change from baseline indicates an increase in TBUT (improvement) and a negative number change from baseline indicates a decrease in TBUT (worsening).	Baseline, Day 35
Secondary	Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire Score	The Work Productivity and Activity questionnaire assesses the effect of dry eye on the ability of subjects to work and perform regular activities on a scale from 0 to 10 during the past 7 days (0=dry eye had no effect on my work/daily activities to 10=dry eye completely prevented me from working/doing my daily activities). Since not all subjects were in full time employment during the study, not all items of the questionnaire were applicable to all subjects at each visit. Outcomes are expressed as impairment percentages, with higher numbers indicating greater impairment and less productivity.	Baseline, Day 35, Month 3
Secondary	Change From Baseline in Corneal Staining in the Study Eye	The cornea is the transparent front part of the eye which covers the iris and pupil. Staining of the cornea followed ocular administration of fluorescein dye and was graded on a 6-point scale (0=no staining to 5=diffuse staining). A negative number change from baseline represents a decrease in corneal staining (improvement) and a positive number change from baseline represents an increase in corneal staining (worsening).	Baseline, Day 35, Month 3
Secondary	Change From Baseline in Conjunctival Staining in the Study Eye	The conjunctiva is the clear membrane covering the white surface of the eye. Staining of the conjunctiva followed ocular administration of lissamine green dye and was graded on a 6-point scale (0=no staining to 5=diffuse staining) in the temporal and nasal locations. A negative number change from baseline represents a decrease in corneal staining (improvement) and a positive number change from baseline represents an increase in corneal staining (worsening).	Baseline, Day 35, Month 3
Secondary	Conjunctival Hyperaemia in the Study Eye	Macroscopic conjunctival hyperemia (eye redness) is graded in the study eye on a 5-point scale (none, trace, mild, moderate, severe).	Baseline, Day 35, Month 3
Secondary	Study Product Use	The number of times the study product is administered per day is recorded.	Day 8, Day 35, Month 3
