Interventions

DRUG

LX201

LX201 was a novel sustained-release silicone implant containing 30% cyclosporine A by weight. LX201 was available in two different lengths, 0.50 and 0.75 inch. Each implant is 0.08 inch wide and 0.04 inch in height. The implants are flat on one side (the posterior surface, which is applied to the episclera) and the anterior surface and ends were rounded.

OTHER

Placebo

The placebo was a silicone implant 0.75 inch in length. It contained no cyclosporine A
