Outcome results

Conjunctival Redness at 7, 15, and 20 Minutes Post CAC on Day 1

Conjunctival Redness was assessed by a trained investigator post-conjunctival allergen challenge (CAC) on a 0 to 4 scale (0=none (best/no redness) to 4=severe (worst/most redness)). The conjunctival redness was averaged across all subjects at each time point.

Time frame: post CAC exposure at 7, 15, and 20 minutes post-CAC on Day 1.

Population: All Randomized Participants Population - All participants who received study treatment.~Note: Pred forte subjects receive Patanol up to and including Visit 5a and are analyzed as Patanol subjects for those visits.
