Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Time at Best Corrected Visual Acuity [ Time Frame: 15 minutes, 45 minutes, and 90 minutes post-dose ]
    Measuring length of time patient can maintain their best vision while completing a computer task. Performed at 15 minutes, 45 minutes, and 90 minutes post-dose. Corrected visual acuity means the patient can wear glasses or contacts if needed such that the measure is performed with the patient seeing the best that they can.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Functional Blink Rate Time (Time Between Blinks) [ Time Frame: 15 minutes, 45 minutes, and 90 minutes post-dose ]
    Measures time in seconds between normal blinks. Performed at 15 minutes, 45 minutes, and 90 minutes post-dose. Longer blink rate time correlates with improved visual performance.
