Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Participants With Complete Resolution of Anterior Chamber (AC) Cells at Visit 5 (Postoperative Day 8)8 days
Slit lamp examination was performed. White blood cell accumulation in anterior aqueous humor was assessed by the Investigator during slit lamp examination and graded on a 5-point scale: Grade 0 = no cells seen; Grade 1 = 1 to 5 cells; Grade 2 = 6 to 15 cells; Grade 3 = 16 to 30 cells; Grade 4 = \> 30 cells. Complete resolution of AC cells was defined as Cell score = 0 in the study eye.
PrimaryNumber of Participants With Complete Resolution of Ocular Pain in Study Eye at Visit 5 (Postoperative Day 8)8 days
Ocular pain, defined as a positive sensation of the eye, including foreign body sensation, stabbing, throbbing, or aching, was assessed and graded by subjects on a 6-point scale: 0 (None), 1 (Minimal), 2 (Mild), 3 (Moderate), 4 (Moderately Severe), and 5 (Severe). Complete Resolution of Ocular Pain was defined as Pain Score = 0.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Complete Resolution of Anterior Chamber (AC) Cells in the Study Eye at Final On-treatment Visit.14 days
Slit lamp examination was performed. White blood cell accumulation in anterior aqueous humor was assessed by the Investigator during slit lamp examination and graded on a 5-point scale: Grade 0 = no cells seen; Grade 1 = 1 to 5 cells; Grade 2 = 6 to 15 cells; Grade 3 = 16 to 30 cells; Grade 4 = \> 30 cells. Complete resolution of AC cells was defined as Cell score = 0 in the study eye.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Complete Resolution of Ocular Pain in Study Eye at Final On-Treatment Visit14 days
Ocular pain, defined as a positive sensation of the eye, including foreign body sensation, stabbing, throbbing, or aching, was assessed and graded by subjects on a 6-point scale: 0 (None), 1 (Minimal), 2 (Mild), 3 (Moderate), 4 (Moderately Severe), and 5 (Severe). Complete Resolution of Ocular Pain was defined as Pain Score = 0.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Complete Resolution of Anterior Chamber (AC) Flare in the Study Eye at Final On-Treatment Visit14 days
Flare was evaluated by the Investigator by assessing the scattering of a slit lamp light beam directed into the anterior chamber (Tyndall effect). Flare was graded on a 5-point scale: 0 (None), 1 (Mild), 2 (Moderate), 3 (Severe), and 4 (Very Severe). An AC flare score of 0 in the study eye was considered complete resolution.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Complete Resolution of Both Anterior Chamber (AC) Cells and AC Flare in the Study Eye at Final On-Treatment Visit14 days
Slit lamp examination was performed. White blood cell accumulation in anterior aqueous humor was assessed by the Investigator during slit lamp examination and graded on a 5-point scale: Grade 0 = no cells seen; Grade 1 = 1 to 5 cells; Grade 2 = 6 to 15 cells; Grade 3 = 16 to 30 cells; Grade 4 = \> 30 cells. Complete resolution of AC cells was defined as Cell score = 0 in the study eye. Flare was evaluated by the Investigator by assessing the scattering of a slit lamp light beam directed into the anterior chamber (Tyndall effect). Flare was graded on a 5-point scale: 0 (None), 1 (Mild), 2 (Moderate), 3 (Severe), and 4 (Very Severe). An AC flare score of 0 in the study eye was considered complete resolution.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Summed Anterior Chamber (AC) Cell and Flare Scores at Final On-Treatment Visit14 days
Slit lamp examination was performed. White blood cell accumulation in anterior aqueous humor was assessed by the Investigator during slit lamp examination and graded on a 5-point scale: Grade 0 = no cells seen; Grade 1 = 1 to 5 cells; Grade 2 = 6 to 15 cells; Grade 3 = 16 to 30 cells; Grade 4 = \> 30 cells. Flare was evaluated by the Investigator by assessing the scattering of a slit lamp light beam directed into the anterior chamber (Tyndall effect). Flare was graded on a 5-point scale: 0 (None), 1 (Mild), 2 (Moderate), 3 (Severe), and 4 (Very Severe). The combined endpoint was defined as the sum of the scores for AC cells and AC flare. Summed Anterior Chamber (AC) Cell and Flare Scores could range from 0 to 8.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Treatment Failure at Visit 5 (Postoperative Day 8)8 days
A participant was considered a treatment failure at Visit 5 if they started any rescue medication prior to, or on the day of, Visit 5. If a subject did not have a Visit 5, due either to early discontinuation or to a missed visit, then treatment failure at Visit 5 was defined as starting rescue medication prior to, or on, Postoperative Day 8.
