Mean Change From Baseline in Contact Lens-Related Dryness Symptoms at Week 1 and Week 2
Contact lens symptoms were evaluated using the Contact Lens Dry Eye Questionnaire (CLDEQ). Subjects rated 8 common contact lens-related ocular surface dryness symptoms at Baseline, Week 1, and Week 2 using a 5-point scale (1=never or not at all intense, 5=constantly or very intense). A scoring algorithm was used to calculate a composite score for each visit for all symptoms (-6.5 to 10). A higher composite score would indicate more contact lens related dry eye and a lower score, less contact lens related dry eye.
Time frame: Baseline, Week 1, Week 2
