About this trial
This is a phase I clinical study to evaluating safety and tolerability of PRO-240 ophthalmic solution through the incidence of unexpected adverse events, as well as through changes in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA), and the incidence of stinging after its administration, compared to Optive®.

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Incidence of unexpected adverse events related to the interventions
Any unfavorable medical condition affecting the subject after the administration of the investigation product, related to such intervention.
Secondary outcomes
Changes in the Ocular Comfort Index score
Changes in the Ocular Comfort Index (OCI) score in between interventions, the subjects will be questioned regarding this symptoms' incidence. The OCI contains 8 items (one positive and eight negative) that focus on discomfort associated with ocular surface disorders. Each of these questions has two parts, which separately inquire about the frequency and severity of symptoms. The OCI score will be used for evaluation of tolerability through incidence and severity of dry eye symptoms in a scale from 0 to 100. Greater scores mean a worse outcome.
Adherence to treatment (adherence) Adherence to treatment (adherence)
Adherence will be evaluated through the treatment record in the subject's diary.
Changes in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA)
The BCVA will be evaluated through Snellen chart.
Changes in tear film breakup time
The most common method for assessing stability is with fluorescein. The precorneal layer colored with fluorescein will change to less fluorescent or non-fluorescent regions. The time from the last blink to the appearance of these regions is the tear film breakup time.
