A Clinical Trial to Evaluate Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of HL217 Eye Drop in Healthy Male Subjects

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and PK parameters in healthy subjects.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and PK parameters of HL217 after single eye drop administration at different doses in healthy subjects.
