Title of the study Efficacy and safety of PRO-155 (Zebesten ofteno®) on inflammation of the conjunctival surface in subjects with grade I-III pterygium vs placebo. Hypothesis H0. The Zebesten® ophthalmic solution (bromfenac 0.09%) is less effective and safe than placebo in reducing conjunctival hyperemia in subjects with grade I-III pterygium. H1 The Zebesten® ophthalmic solution (bromfenac 0.09%) is more effective and safe than placebo in reducing conjunctival hyperemia in subjects with grade I-III pterygium. Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of PRO-155 (bromfenac 009%) ophthalmic solution in the treatment of conjunctival hyperemia and ocular surface inflammation in a clinical model of pterygium grade I to III.
Variables to be evaluated Visual ability Intraocular pressure. Ocular surface Exploration of the previous segment. Exploration of the posterior segment. Lacrimal rupture time. Corneal de-epithelialization Conjunctival de-epithelialization Adverse events. PHARMACOLOGICAL INTERVENTION The pharmacological intervention will consist of the instillation of the ophthalmological solution in the conjunctival cul-de-sac, during the waking period, to any of the following study groups: * Group 1: * Sodium hyaluronate 0.4% \[Lagricel ofteno®\] 1 drop 3 times a day in the period of vigil in the conjunctival sac fund (the following application scheme is suggested: start: 7:00 ± 1 hours, continuation: 15:00 ± 1 hour and term: at 19:00 ± 1 hours) for 20 days * Pro-155 1 drop 2 times a day in the period of vigil in the conjunctival cul-de-sac (the following application scheme is recommended: start: 7:15 ± 1 hours and term: at 19:15 ± 1 hours) during 20 days * Group 2: * Sodium hyaluronate 0.4% \[Lagricel ofteno®\] 1 drop 3 times a day in the period of vigil in the conjunctival sac fund (the following application scheme is suggested: start: 7:00 ± 1 hours, continuation: 15:00 ± 1 hour and term: at 19:00 ± 1 hours) for 20 days * Placebo 1 drop 2 times a day in the period of vigil in the conjunctival cul-de-sac (the following application scheme is recommended: start: 7:15 ± 1 hours and term: at 19:15 ± 1 hours) for 20 days

Conjunctival Hyperemia (CH)
Conjunctival hyperemia will be evaluated as an ordinal variable, by direct observation and staged using the Efron scale as Normal / Very Light / Mild / Moderate / Severe. Based on this scale, the normal and mild stages are considered without pathologies or normal. Mild, moderate and severe are considered pathological.
Time frame: will be evaluated at the end of the treatment at the final visit (day 21)
Breakup Time (BUT)
breakup time lacrimal film is a continuous variable that will be measured in seconds, evaluating the time it takes to break it, is done by direct counting and the normality range and mayor to 10 seconds.
Time frame: will be evaluated at the end of the treatment at the final visit (day 21)
Epithelial Defects (ED) Green Lissamine
The epithelial defects will be evaluated by means of two stains, green lysine and fluorescein, it is a discrete variable that will be realized by direct observation, it will be staged according to the degrees of the oxford scale that go from 0 to 5 (0-V) according to its severity, where 0 is the normal lower limit and 5 the upper limit of defects.
Time frame: will be evaluated at the end of the treatment at the final visit (day 21)
Intraocular Pressure (IOP)
the intraocular pressure will be evaluated by means of the Goldman applanation tonometry whose unit of measurement is millimeters of mercury (mmHg), it is a continuous variable and its normality range is between 11 - 21 mmHg
Time frame: will be evaluated at the end of the treatment at the final visit (day 21)
Presence of Adverse Events (EAS)
primary security variable the adverse events will be evaluated with a scale of Present / Absent, it is a nominal variable, the normal value is absent. Adverse events that are reported until the safety call to the 36th day of the study will be considered for this variable
Time frame: will be evaluated at the end of the treatment at the final visit (day 36)
Visual Capacity
The visual capacity variable will be reported using as a unit of measure a fraction, this is taken from a visual test with the Snellen primer, it is a Nominal type variable. where the optimal vision is 20/20.
Time frame: will be evaluated at the end of the treatment at the final visit (day 21)
Number of Eyes With Chemosis
In a normal eye there is no presence of chemosis (it is a sign of irritation of the eye, in which the outer covering of the eye can look like a large blister) its presence indicates a pathological state and it will be evaluated if the subjects present it. The chemosis will be evaluated, as a nominal variable, by direct observation and it will be staged as present and absent, where the normality is that said variable is absent.
Time frame: will be evaluated at the end of the treatment at the final visit (day 21)
Number of Eyes With Foreign Body Sensation (FBS)
Foreign body sensation will be evaluated, as a nominal variable, by direct observation and it will be staged as present and absent, where the normality is that said variable is absent.
Time frame: will be evaluated at the end of the treatment at the final visit (day 21)
Epithelial Defects (ED) Fluorescein Stain
The epithelial defects will be evaluated by means of two stains, green lysine and fluorescein, it is a discrete variable that will be realized by direct observation, it will be staged according to the degrees of the oxford scale that go from 0 to 5 (0-V) according to its severity, where 0 is the normal lower limit and 5 the upper limit of defects.
Time frame: will be evaluated at the end of the treatment at the final visit (day 21)
