The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of LN24214 in reducing digital eye strain. A total of 120 male and female subjects aged between 30-50 years will be included in the study. Assessment of inclusion and exclusion criteria will be done based on clinical and laboratory investigations. The eligible subjects will be randomized as per the computer generated randomization list. The subjects will be assigned to either LN24214 - 200 mg or placebo arms at 1:1 ratio. The subjects will be instructed to take One capsule daily in the morning after breakfast for 42 days. Apart from primary and secondary outcomes, the study will also record the vital signs and adverse events to evaluate the herbal compositions safety and tolerability. The safety assessment of the LN24214 will also include routine laboratory investigations on blood, urine and clinical chemistry at screening and the final visit of the intervention. |
