Previously undiagnosed dry eye, at the determination of the Investigator. Dry eyediagnosis should be based on one of the following dry eye test results: tearbreak-up time < 5 seconds, or corneal fluorescein staining ≥ Grade 2 in the inferiorzone or ≥ Grade 1 in the central zone using the National Eye Institute scale Systemic:
Known hypersensitivity or contraindication to alpha- and/or beta-adrenoceptorantagonists (eg, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or bronchial asthma;abnormally low BP or HR; second- or third-degree heart blockage or congestive heartfailure; or severe diabetes as defined below)

A female is considered to be of childbearingpotential unless she is 1 year postmenopausal or 3 months post-surgicalsterilization. All females of childbearing potential including those post-tuballigation must have a negative urine pregnancy test result at each visit
