Study Summary

Allergic conjunctivitis (AC) afflicts approximately 20% of the US population. Typically, patients manifest symptoms in the spring, summer and fall, when airborne allergens are at their peak. Patients may also be afflicted year-round, if sensitive to allergens such as dust mites or pet dander. Signs and symptoms of allergic conjunctivitis are conjunctival hyperemia, ocular itching, conjunctival and eyelid edema, papillary hypertrophy, tearing and burning. This is a randomized clinical study to evaluate the efficacy of Bepreve® (bepotastine besilate 1.5% ophthalmic solution) compared to Alrex® (loteprednol etabonate 0.2%) in the treatment of moderate to severe allergic conjunctivitis in patient over the age of 18 years. The study will be a two-week study with four visits. Ocular signs (eye redness( and symptoms (itching) will be monitored as outcome variables.

Primary Outcome

Ocular Itching Scale. Scale is 0 - 4 in 0.5 scale unit increments. 0 equals no Itch. 4 equals most severe itch. No calculation details are necessary as the change is calculated as the latest time point minus the earliest time point.

Interventions

  • DRUG Loteprednol etabonate
  • DRUG bepotastine besilate, 1.5%
