Adults ≥18 years of age who have been diagnosed with DED for at least 6 months and who are currently symptomatic (Eye Dryness VAS Score ≥40) will be recruited. Subjects will have an abnormal Schirmer test of \<10 mm/5 min. Subjects will also be required to score ≤70 on the IDEEL Quality of Life (QoL) Work domain to ensure that their DED symptoms are significantly impacting their ability to do work.9 Subjects will be required to have corrected distance visual acuity of 20/32 (0.2 logMAR) or better.
