`
`New Jersey-based eye heal h company Bausch
`+ Lomb has announced last week of the U.S.
`
`Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of
`
`LUMIFY"' (brimonidine tartrate ophthalmic
`
`solu ion 0.025%). It is the first over-the-counter
`
`eye drop developed with low-dose brimonidine
`
`tartrate for the treatment of ocular redness.
`Brimonidine has been clinically proven to be
`safe and effective since its initial approval as a
`
`prescription medication in 1996 for intraocular
`
`pressure (IOP) reduc ion in glaucoma patients,
`
`and is available at higher doses in prescription
`
`oph halmic products.

`
`•ocular redness is a common, non-specific sign hat brings many patients into our offices." said Melissa Toyos, M.D.,
`general oph halmologist, dry eye specialist, cataract surgeon and facial cosmetic surgeon at Toyos Clinic. "LUMIFY
`
`specifically reduces redness due to minor irritations while alleviating concerns of rebound hyperemia, dependency or
`
`tachyphylaxis-conditions that can lead to serious or permanent damage to the eye. I am excited to recommend
`LUMIFY to my patients to effectively relieve redness and help them get 'camera ready'.'
`
`To support approval of an OTC indication for LUMIFY, six clinical studies were conducted in over 600 patients to
`
`evaluate the safety and efficacy of low-<lose brimonidine tartrate in relieving ocular redness, including studies with
`both pediatric and geriatric subjects. The double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 3 efficacy study
`showed that 95% of subjects reported significant symptom improvement at 1 minute, while 79% of respondents
`maintained significant redness reduc ion at 8 hours. The strong efficacy and safety profile of brimonidine tartrate
`
`0.025% includes not only significant redness reduction for up to 8 hours, but low-risk of allergic reac ions among all
`
`patient groups.
`
`"LUMIFY is an important addition to the diverse Bausch+ Lomb portfolio of eye health products, and demonstrates
`
`our con inued commitment to introducing new innovative products that meet he evolving needs of eye care
`
`professionals and the patients they treat• said Joseph Gordon, president, Consumer Healthcare and Vision Care,
`
`Bausch + Lomb.
`
`LUMIFY will be available for purchase in major retailers in the second quarter of 2018.
