A Single-Center, Double-Masked, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Evaluation of Prednisolone Sodium Phosphate Ophthalmic Solution, 1% Compared to Placebo in a Modified Conjunctival Allergen Challenge (CAC) Model
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the modified Conjunctival
Allergen Challenge (CAC) and observe how the produced allergic inflammation reacts to
treatment with a proven ocular anti-inflammatory medication,
Prednisolone, assessed by the following measures:
Chronic Allergic Inflammation assessed using confocal microscopy Ocular itching Conjunctival
