Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 80 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Males and females, 18-80 years old
  2. Subjects with severe aqueous deficient dry eye disease (concomitant meibomian gland disease is permitted):

    1. SPEED questionnaire score ≥ 10 AND
    2. Fluorescein Corneal Staining Score (FCSS) ≥ 5 NEI score in at least in one eye AND
    3. Schirmer score ≤ 10 mm in at least one eye (at screening or treatment day pre-treatment)
  3. No contact lens wear for at least seven days prior to the Screening Visit and willingness to forego contact lens wear for the duration of the study;
  4. Literacy, able to speak English or Hebrew, and able to complete questionnaires independently;
  5. Willing and able to sign the informed consent form and deemed capable of complying with the requirements of the study protocol (tests and follow-up visits).

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Significant anterior blepharitis including signs of Demodex eyelid infection;
  2. If the subject is using prescription dry eye ophthalmic drug such as Restasis (Cyclosporine A 0.05% ophthalmic emulsion), Xiidra (Lifitegrast), Cequa (Cyclosporine 0.09% ophthalmic solution), and the medication has not been used regularly for the past 3 months prior to screening visit;
  3. Change in eye lubricant type usage in the last 1 month prior enrollment. Use of any device to manage DED within 1 month of Screening Visit;
  4. Punctal plugs are present at screening that were inserted in the last 30 days prior enrollment, or intracanalicular plug that were inserted in the last 6 months in any eyelid;

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA)
Frequency of treatment related deterioration in BCVA
Intraocular Pressure (IOP)
IOP results will be summarized descriptively. 95% confidence intervals for the difference between treatment arms at each visit will be presented, assuming t-distribution.
Slit lamp biomicroscopy
The percent related to worsening in ocular pathological changes observed
Rate of device/treatment related adverse events
Rate of device/treatment related Incidence of Adverse events (AE) will be presented in tabular form by seriousness, severity and relation to treatment
Fluorescein corneal staining
Change from baseline in fluorescein corneal staining score (NEI Scale 0-15) per treatment arm and visit (lower scores mean a better outcome.)
Ocular discomfort questionnaires
Change from baseline in ocular discomfort questionnaires (Standard Patient Evaluation of Eye Dryness - SPEED) per treatment arm and visit. score from 0 to 28, higher scores mean a worse outcome. (Reduction in SUM score = improvement)
