Inclusion criteria

* A photopic BCVA in the prospective study eye(s) of ≤ 70 letters at the Screening and Day 1 visits AND a change of ≤ 10 letters in photopic BCVA at Day 1 compared to the Screening Visit * Qualifying LSCD diagnosis in the study eye(s) prior to enrollment at Day 1 * Written confirmation that exclusions on retinal findings are met in the study eye(s) prior to enrollment at Day 1 * Inflammation associated with LSCD or other non-infectious inflammation (e.g., dry eye, ocular rosacea, and blepharitis) that will not interfere with the subject's participation in the opinion of the investigator is permitted.

Exclusion criteria

* Any active ocular infection in either eye at either the Screening or Day 1 visits * Active sterile iritis or uveitis in either eye at Screening or Day 1 visits * Screening visit retinal exam finding, in the opinion of the investigator, that would limit potential for visual acuity gain in the study eye(s) Note: Other inclusion/
