  • Use of concomitant topical ocular medications during the study period.
  • Patients using systemic medications that may contribute to dry eye may not be enrolled unless they have been on a stable dosing regimen for a minimum of 30 days prior to Visit 1, and the dosing regimen must remain stable throughout the study period.
  • Ocular conditions such as conjunctival infections, iritis, or any other ocular condition that may preclude the safe admininstration of the test article.
