Notes: Subjects rated the severity of each of the following symptoms with regards to how both their eyes felt, in general: overall ocular discomfort, burning, dryness, grittiness, and stinging, according to a 6-point (0–5) scale, where 0= none and 5= worst. Scores were collected before and after dosing at Visit 1 and at Visits 2 and 3. Both agents reduced mean discomfort scores postdosing at Visit 1; the decrease in mean grittiness score in the Rohto group was significantly greater than that seen in the Systane group. p-values in bold indicate significance (p<0.05).
