- Regular use of systemic or topical ophthalmic non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents (NSAID), and analgesics
- Younger than 18 years of age, Male or Female
- Unwilling to provide written informed consent

- Use of any concurrent therapies for allergic conjunctivitis, prescription or over the counter.
Prohibited medications include:
- topical ophthalmic or systemic corticosteroids
- topical ophthalmic/nasal antihistamines (72 hour washout period prior to baseline/screening visit and no use throughout duration of the study)
- artificial tears/ocular lubricants (72 hour washout period and no use throughout the duration of the study)

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Efficacy of Hydrocortisone Ophthalmic Ointment 0.5% vs. Placebo for the reduction of signs and symptoms associated with allergic conjunctivitis
Time Frame: 14 days
|
Demonstration of efficacy is a statistically significant improvement in itching on a 0 to 4 patient subjective assessment itch score compared to the vehicle arm and at least a 25% (or 1 full unit or more) improvement in itch scores.
Efficacy for bulbar redness scores would be indicated by a statistically significant improvement in redness on a zero to 4 based on the investigators objective assessment compared to the vehicle group.
Differences of at least 25% on the four point scale would be considered clinically significant when attained at the majority of time points.

Safety of Hydrocortisone Ophthalmic Ointment 0.5% vs. Placebo for the reduction of signs and symptoms associated with allergic conjunctivitis
Time Frame: 3 days, 14 days
|
At each visit, the principal investigator or designated personnel determined to be medically qualified by the principal investigator will begin by querying for adverse events by asking each patient a general, non-directed question such as 'How have you been feeling since the last visit?'
Directed questioning and examination will then be done as appropriate.
All reported adverse events will be documented on the appropriate case report form.
