`
`amended paragraph:
`
`This application is a continuation of copending U.S. Application Serial No.
`
`13/961,828 filed August 7, 2013, which is a continuation of copending U.S. Application
`
`Serial No. 11/897,177, filed August 28, 2007, which is a continuation of U.S. Application
`
`Serial No. 10/927,857, filed August 27, 2004, now abandoned, which claimedthe benefit
`
`of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/503,137 filed September 15, 2003, which-s are
`
`incorporated in #s their entirety herein by reference.
`
`Please replace page 4, line 25 — page 5, line 3 of the specification filed herewith with the
`
`following amended paragraph:
`
`The present methodsare useful in treating any suitable condition whichis
`
`therapeutically sensitive to or treatable with cyclosporin components. Such conditions
`
`preferably are ophthalmic or ocular conditions,that is relating to or having to do with one
`
`or more parts of an eye of a human or animal. Included among such conditionsare,
`
`without limitation, dry eye syndrome, phacoanaphy lactic endophthalmitis, uveitis, vernal
`
`conjunctivitis, atopic keratoconjunctivitis, corneal graft rejection and the like conditions.
`
`The present invention is particularly effective in treating dry eye syndrome. Cyclosporin
`
`has been foundas effective in treating immune mediated keratoconjunctivitis sicca (KCS
`
`
`or dry
`eye disease)
`in a patient suffering therefrom. The activity of cyclosporinsis as an
`
`immunosuppressant and in the enhancementor restoring of lacrimal gland tearing. Other
`
`conditions that can be treated with cyclosporin components include an absolute or partial
`
`deficiency in aqueoustear production (keratoconjunctivitis sicca, or KCS). Topical
`
`administration to a patient's tear deficient eye can increase tear production in the eye. The
`
`treatment can further serve to correct corneal and conjunctival disorders exacerbated by
`
`tear deficiency and KCS, such as corneal scarring, corneal ulceration, inflammation of
`
`the cornea or conjunctiva, filamentary keratisis, mucopurulent discharge and
`
`vascularization of the cornea.
