Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether SkQ1 ophthalmic solutions are safe and effective compared to placebo for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of dry eye syndrome.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Dry Eye Syndrome Drug: Low Dose - SkQ1 Drug: High dose - SkQ1 Drug: SkQ1 (Vehicle) Phase 3

Detailed Description:

Multi-center, double-masked, randomized, placebo-controlled study comprising 5 visits over the course of approximately 9 weeks. Qualified subjects are randomized 1:1:1 to receive either High Dose SkQ1 ophthalmic solution, Low Dose SkQ1 ophthalmic solution, or Placebo (vehicle of SkQ1 ophthalmic solution).

The Primary Endpoints are:

Change from Baseline (Visit 2) to Visit 5 in Corneal Fluorescein Staining;

Change from Baseline (Visit 2) to Visit 5 in Grittiness Symptom
