Registered outcomes2

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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryAnterior Chamber Cell GradeDay 8Percentage of participants with anterior chamber cell grade of "0" (absence of cells)
SecondaryPain Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) ScoreDay 8
Percentage of participants with VAS pain score of "0" (no eye pain). Pain was scored by ticking on a continuous scale comprised of a 10 cm horizontal line anchored by two verbal descriptions: "no eye pain" (score of 0) and "worst imaginable eye pain" (score of 10).
