Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Stimulated Acute Tear Production

    Stimulated acute tear production in the study eye at Day 180 as measured by the difference between the Schirmer test score during stimulation and the test score before stimulation (basal). The Schirmer strip is placed just under the eyelid and wicks up the tears. It measures tear production on a linear scale of 0-35 mm.

    The stimulated and prestimulation (basal) measures were both performed at Day 180.

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Corrected Distance Visual Acuity

    Baseline and 6 months

  • Slit Lamp Biomicroscopy

    6 months

Other Outcomes (1)

  • Device-related Adverse Events

    6 months

Study Arms (1)

EXPERIMENTAL

The Oculeve Intranasal Lacrimal Neurostimulator will be administered two to ten times per day for up to three minutes per administration.
