Ocular (eye) redness is an extremely common condition that can be caused by minor irritations. Researchers are working on a new therapy to better relieve eye redness.
Alcon is assessing the safety and efficacy of a new topical (eye drop) medication for reducing ocular redness caused by minor eye irritations in adults. This investigational eye drop was previously studied and showed potential for both fast and long-lasting redness relief. It may even provide up to 12 hours of redness relief, starting within 1 minute. Researchers hope this new therapy can prove to be both safe and effective, allowing patients with ocular redness to experience longer lasting relief without the hassle of frequently using eye drops.
This study is evaluating the preservative free version of the investigational medication. Participants will be given eye drops to take home and dose twice a day, 12 hours apart. This study will require participants to use an electronic diary, on a personal device (with internet access), to record when the study eye drops are used at home between visits, for about eight weeks.
There are a total of six visits over approximately 10 weeks, where participants will come into a clinic and undergo several non-invasive eye exams and questionnaires. Participants may also receive compensation of up to $XXX for their time and effort.
