This analysis characterized the rapid onset of upper eyelid elevation with once-daily oxymetazoline 0.1% and durability of this effect over 42 days.Materials and Methods: Pooling data from two prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, phase 3 studies, change in marginal reflex distance 1 (MRD-1) was evaluated at a range of post-instillation time points on treatment days 1, 14, and 42. Onset of effect was assessed beginning at 5 minutes post-administration (one study) and through 6 hours at the first two visits (both studies). Overall, 203 subjects received oxymetazoline 0.1% and 101 received vehicle.Results: Oxymetazoline 0.1% demonstrated a rapid onset of action on all days evaluated. Mean changes from baseline 5 and 15 minutes post-oxymetazoline 0.1% instillation on day 1 were 0.59 ± 0.72 mm and 0.93 ± 0.81 mm, respectively (vs 0.20 ± 0.57 mm and 0.32 ± 0.64 mm with vehicle; both p< 0.001). On day 14, mean changes from baseline 5 and 15 minutes post-oxymetazoline 0.1% instillation were 0.77 ± 0.85 mm and 1.11 ± 0.92 mm, respectively (vs 0.42 ± 0.78 mm and 0.41 ± 0.83 mm with vehicle; both p< 0.05). This effect was also observed immediately post-instillation on day 42, where mean increases 5 and 15 minutes post-oxymetazoline 0.1% instillation were 0.86 ± 0.85 mm and 1.04 ± 0.91 mm, respectively (vs 0.42 ± 0.80 mm and 0.47 ± 0.93 mm with vehicle; both p< 0.005). Significant improvements vs vehicle (p< 0.001) were also observed at 2– 6 hours on days 1 and 14. At all time points, the proportion of subjects showing a positive response to treatment (> 0% MRD-1 increase) was > 15% greater in the oxymetazoline 0.1% group (range 16.6– 36.1% more responders vs vehicle), with the largest differences observed 2 and 6 hours post-instillation.Conclusion: Oxymetazoline 0.1% provided rapid and sustained upper eyelid elevation. Together with data demonstrating superior visual field improvement and a favorable safety profile, this analysis supports oxymetazoline 0.1% as an effective non-surgical treatment for acquired ptosis.Keywords: alpha adrenergic agonist, eye drop, Müller’s muscle, non-surgical, topical, pharmacologic
