What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Conjunctival Staining by Lissamine Green
Time Frame: week 1, month 1
Percentage of cases of limbal staining by lissamine green at each point on a five point scale (0 = None, 1 = Trace, 2 = Mild, 3 = Moderate, 4 = Severe)
week 1, month 1

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Corneal Staining by Fluorescein
Time Frame: week 1, month 1
Percentage of cases of limbal staining by sodium fluorescein at each point on a five point scale (0 = None, 1 = Trace, 2 = Mild, 3 = Moderate, 4 = Severe)
week 1, month 1
Conjunctival Hyperaemia
Time Frame: week 1, month 1
Percentage of conjunctival response reported in terms of limbal hyperaemia for the worst responses over the area at each point on a five point scale (0=clear/white conjunctiva, 1=slight redness, 2=Mild redness, 3=Moderate redness, 4=Severe redness)
week 1, month 1
Ocular Comfort and Ocular Symptoms on Visual Analogue Scale
Time Frame: week 1, month 1
Mean comfort judged on a 100 point visual analogue scale (0=Very Poor, 100=Excellent)
week 1, month 1
Daily Eyedrop Usage
Time Frame: Month 1
Average daily eyedrop use
Month 1
Lipid Layer Pattern Assessment
Time Frame: Week 1, month 1
Lipid layer thickness as determined by lipid layer mixing pattern. A high mixing pattern = thick lipid layer.
Week 1, month 1
