Actual (reported)Change From Baseline in Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD) Impact Questionnaire Score
MGD impact questionnaire includes 10 questions about the impacts a participant may experience associated with MGD. Participants were asked to rate how much they have been affected by MGD symptoms in past 7 days. Question/s (Qs) 1-6 (computer usage, reading, leisure activities, social activities, driving and outdoor activities) were rated on a scale of 1=no difficulty to 5=a lot of difficulty. Q7 (frequency of outdoor activities) was rated on scale of 1=never to 5=all the time. If participants did not experience a particular impact, they chose 0=NA for Qs 1-7. Q8 (time spent to take care of eyes) was rated on scale 0-4, where 0=no time at all to 4=a lot of time, Qs 9-10 (bothered with amount of time taking care of eyes and bothered by appearance) were rated on scale 0-4, with 0=not at all bothered to 4=very bothered. Higher scores represented greater impact. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.
Baseline (Day 0) to Day 30
Change From Baseline in MGD Symptoms Questionnaire Score
MGD symptom questionnaire included 11 questions about the symptoms the participant may experience associated with MGD. The participant was asked to rate how much they experienced certain MGD symptoms and the severity of the symptoms over the past 24 hours on a scale of 0 to 4, where 0 = not at all, 1 = a little, 2 = somewhat, 3=quite a bit, 4 = very. A higher score within each question represented increased severity of the indicated symptom. A negative change from baseline indicates improvement.
Baseline (Day 0) to Day 30
Participants received application of Thermalon dry eye compress on Days 0 and 7 followed by daily use as per label instructions.
Participants received TrueTear™ device intranasally for approximately 8 minutes on Day 0, for approximately 3 minutes on Day 7 followed by daily use of TrueTear™ per participant guide.
Intranasal application of TrueTear™ device for approximately 8 minutes at Day 0, for approximately 3 minutes at Day 7 and then daily use of TrueTear™ per participant guide.
