Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Lower Eyelid Steatoblepharon Severity (LESS) Score--Clinician-Reported
Time Frame: 11 weeks
Photonumeric scale, range 0-4, 0 is absence of steatoblepharon, 4 is very severe steatoblepharon.
11 weeks

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Patient Satisfaction Scale 1 (PSS1)
Time Frame: 0-11 weeks
Change from Baseline to Week 11 in PSS1 score. PSS1 scale items use an ordinal scale with range 0-10, where 0 is the least favorable and 10 is the most favorable. The composite score is the sum of 6 items and has a possible response range of 0 to 60.
0-11 weeks
Patient Satisfaction Scale 2 (PSS2)
Time Frame: 11 weeks
Composite score on PSS2 scale. PSS2 is an ordinal scale with range 1-7, where 1 is least favorable and 7 is most favorable. The composite score is the sum of 3 items and has a possible response range of 3 to 21.
