- Change From Baseline/Visit 2 (Day 1) in Ocular Discomfort Severity at Visit 4 (Day 15) [ Time Frame: Baseline/Visit 2 (Day 1) and to Visit 4 (Day 15) ]Comparison of mean ocular discomfort severity between the KPI-121 0.25% ophthalmic suspension group and the vehicle group using a 0-100 visual analog grading scale where 0 was better and 100 was worse.
- Change From Baseline/Visit 2 (Day 1) Ocular Discomfort Severity at Visit 4 (Day 15) in the Subgroup of Participants With More Severe Ocular Discomfort [ Time Frame: Baseline/Visit 2 (Day 1) and to Visit 4 (Day 15) ]Comparison of mean ocular discomfort severity between the KPI-121 0.25% ophthalmic suspension group and the vehicle group using a 0-100 visual analog grading scale where 0 was better and 100 was worse, in a sub-group of participants with more severe ocular discomfort at baseline.
- Change From Baseline/Visit 2 (Day 1) in Bulbar Conjunctival Hyperemia at Visit 4 (Day 15) [ Time Frame: Baseline/Visit 2 (Day 1) and to Visit 4 (Day 15) ]Comparison of mean bulbar conjunctival hyperemia between the KPI-121 0.25% ophthalmic suspension group and the vehicle group using a 0-4 grading scale. The grading scale was based on the Cornea and Contact Lens Research Unit Grading Scale where 0 = none, 1 = very slight, 2 = slight, 3 = moderate and 4 = severe.
- Change in Conjunctival Hyperemia Scores at Visit 4 (Day 15) by Alternate Assessor [ Time Frame: Baseline/Visit 2 (Day 1) and to Visit 4 (Day 15) ]Comparison of mean bulbar conjunctival hyperemia between the KPI-121 0.25% ophthalmic suspension group and the vehicle group using a 0-4 grading scale. The grading scale was based on the Cornea and Contact Lens Research Unit Grading Scale where 0 = none, 1 = very slight, 2 = slight, 3 = moderate and 4 = severe.
- Change From Baseline/Visit 2 (Day 1) in Ocular Discomfort Severity at Visit 3 (Day 8) [ Time Frame: Baseline/Visit 2 (Day 1) to Visit 3 (Day 8) ]Comparison of mean ocular discomfort severity between the KPI-121 0.25% ophthalmic suspension group and the vehicle group using a 0-100 visual analog grading scale where 0 was better and 100 was worse.
- Change From Baseline/Visit 2 (Day 1) in Corneal Fluorescein Staining Score at Visit 4 (Day 15) [ Time Frame: Baseline/Visit 2 (Day 1) to Visit 4 (Day 15) ]Comparison of mean corneal fluorescein staining between the KPI-121 0.25% ophthalmic suspension group and the vehicle group using methods developed by the National Eye Institute (NEI) Dry Eye Workshop in evaluating 5 regions of the cornea (superior, inferior, nasal, temporal and central) using a 0-3 grading scale, where 0 = no visible staining, 1 = Mild, 2 = moderate and 3 = severe.
- Change From Baseline/Visit 2 (Day 1) in Ocular Discomfort Severity at Visit 4 (Day 15) Using 7 Day Mean [ Time Frame: Baseline/Visit 2 (Day 1) to Visit 4 (Day 15) ]Comparison of mean ocular discomfort severity between the KPI-121 0.25% ophthalmic suspension group and the vehicle group using a 0-100 visual analog grading scale where 0 was better and 100 was worse.
