Study Summary

This is a Phase IV, single site, randomized, double masked, parallel control clinical trial of 60 subjects to investigate the variance of efficacy between Lotemax® and Zylet® for treatment of ocular surface inflammation due to meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). Efficacy will be measured by in-vivo confocal microscopy, corneal fluorescein staining, grading of meibomian gland dysfunction and validated ocular symptom assessment questionnaire.

Primary Outcome

OSDI is a 12-question survey used to measure the symptoms of dry eye disease. Each of the 12 individual questions rate one symptom on a 0-4 scale, with 4 meaning that the symptom is present all of the time and 0 meaning the symptom is present none of the time. The overall ODSI score is calculated by adding all of the values from the 12 questions, multiplying that value by 25, and dividing the resulting value by the number of questions answered. This results in an overall scale that ranges from 0
