They are of legal age between 18 and 40 years.
-
They understand their rights as a research subject and are willing and able to sign a Statement of Informed Consent.
-
They are willing and able to follow the protocol.
-
They are current wearers of any soft contact lens (i.e. have worn lenses in the last six months).
-
They have refractive ocular astigmatism between 0.00DC and -1.50DC in one or both eyes.
-
They have a spherical component to their ocular refractive error between 0.00 and - 6.00 DS.
-
They could attain at least 0.10 logMAR distance high contrast visual acuity in one eye with the study lenses within the available power range.
-
They can be fitted satisfactorily with both lens types.
-
They own an acceptable pair of spectacles.
-
They agree not to participate in other clinical research for the duration of this study.
Exclusion Criteria:
Subjects will not be eligible to take part in the study if:
-
They have an ocular disorder which would normally contra-indicate contact lens wear.
-
They have a systemic disorder which would normally contra-indicate contact lens wear.
-
They are using any topical medication such as eye drops or ointment.
-
They have had corneal refractive surgery.
-
They have any corneal distortion resulting from previous hard or rigid lens wear or have keratoconus.
-
They are pregnant or breastfeeding.
-
They have any ocular abnormality which would, in the opinion of the investigator, normally contraindicate contact lens wear.
