Detailed description
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the systemic pharmacokinetics (PK) of LE (loteprednol etabonate ophthalmic gel), 0.38% in normal healthy volunteer subjects at least 18 years of age and with a normal ophthalmic history. Systemic PK will be assessed in this study after a single dose and after 2 weeks of daily BID dosing.
