Inclusion Criteria:

To be eligible for inclusion, each Participant must meet each of the following:

  1. Male or female aged ≥ 18 years and ≤ 79 years at date of consent

  3. Ocular surgery within 6 months of study start date
  4. Current contact lens wear
  5. Any prior and/or current topical ophthalmic treatments that in the opinion of the CI or PI may interfere with the study outcomes
  6. Started or changed the dose of chronic systemic medication known to affect tear production including, but not limited to antihistamines, anticholinergics, antidepressants, diuretics, corticosteroids or immunomodulators within 30 days prior to enrolment

    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Patient reported symptoms
    Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI): 12-item questionnaire designed to assess the symptoms of ocular irritation consistent with dry eye disease and their impact on vision-related functioning and Symptom Assessment in Dry Eye (SANDE): Two questions which each use a horizontal visual analogue technique to quantify patient symptomatology of dryness and/or irritation
    Patient reported quality of life
    Impact of Dry Eye Disease on Everyday Life (IDEEL - copyright Novartis Pharma AG): The use of this questionnaire (Treatment Satisfaction module only) will provide assessment of the impact of study treatment on patient outcomes in this study.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    Non-invasive tear break-up time (NITBUT)
    Measure of time taken from blink to breakup of tear film
    Evaporimetry
    Measure of the rate of evaporation of the tear film from the surface of the eye
    Interferometry
    Tear film lipid layer interferometry is a test to study the structure and quality of the lipid layer in the tear film
    Osmolarity
    Tear osmolarity is a test to determine the solute concentration of the tear film
    Corneal and Conjunctival Staining
    Corneal and conjunctival damage due to dry eye can be measured by staining the surface of the eye with fluorescein and examining under a lamp with a cobalt blue filter
    Inflammatory markers
    Cytokine analysis will be carried out to determine the presence and concentration of a panel of inflammatory biomarkers in the tears using a multiplex immunoassay

    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    Single-blind, randomised, single centre, 2-way crossover pilot study to investigate the effectiveness of LAMELLEYE for the treatment of dry eye symptoms in patients with primary Sjögren's Syndrome.
    Detailed Description
    The study is a 2-way crossover design comprising 2 treatments: the CE-marked LAMELLEYE dry eye drops, and a CE-marked comparator product. All Participants will be allocated to a treatment group in a random order. The study design allows observations to be made between the treatments at both an intra- and inter-patient level regarding relationships between the patient's disease specific quality of life, symptoms and adverse events, and satisfaction with treatments.
