- Inferior Corneal Fluorescein Staining Score in Pre-Controlled Adverse Environment at Day 84 [ Time Frame: Day 84 ]Corneal staining was performed to grade the degree of corneal epithelial cell injury as measured by fluorescence using slit-lamp examination. The staining was graded with the Ophthalmic Research Associates, Inc. (ORA) scale. The corneal surface is divided into three regions: superior, central and inferior. The scores for each of these 3 regions ranged from 0 to 4 (0=no staining; 1=occasional; 2=countable; 3=uncountable, but not confluent; 4=confluent) with 0.5 point increments, and lower score indicates a better outcome. Inferior corneal fluorescein staining scores from the study eye only were reported. Study eye is the 'worse eye', defined as the eye with worse (higher) score at baseline.
