Comparing Somofilcon A Monthly Replacement Versus Omafilcon A Daily Disposable
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare subjective ratings of lens handling at insertion for somofilcon A monthly replacement versus omafilcon A daily disposable in habitual soft lens wearers.

N/A |
Detailed Description
This is a non-dispensing, randomized, double-masked, crossover study. Participants will wear two different contact lenses bilaterally over 4 study visits, all conducted on the same day. Estimated duration of involvement for each participant is 4 hours.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Lens Handling at Insertion [90 minutes of wear]
Binocular subjective rating of the ease of lens application to eye, using a 0-100 scale (0=Very difficult, 100=Very easy)
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
-
Are 17 to 40 years of age and have full legal capacity to volunteer;
-
Have read and signed an information consent letter;
-
Are willing and able to follow instructions and maintain the appointment schedule;
-
Are habitual daily wearers of spherical single vision soft contact lenses to correct for distance vision in each eye
-
Are correctable to a visual acuity of 20/20 or better (in each eye) with sphero-cylindrical subjective refraction;
-
Have an astigmatism of ≤ 0.75DC in subjective refraction;
-
Can be fit with the study contact lenses with a power between -1.00 and -6.00DS; this translates to best corrected vision sphere refraction that vertexes to a CL power between -1.00 and -6.00 (inclusive) at screening visit.
-
Demonstrate an acceptable fit with the study lenses.
Exclusion Criteria:
-
Have taken part in another clinical research study within the last 14 days;
-
Are currently habitual wearers of toric, multifocal or monovision lenses.
-
Have worn any rigid contact lenses in the past 6 months
-
Are an extended lens wearer (i.e., sleeping with their lenses)
-
Have a difference of ≥1.5 D in best vision sphere subjective refraction between eyes;
-
Have amblyopia and/or distance strabismus/binocular vision problem;
-
Have any known active ocular disease, allergies and/or infection;
-
Have a systemic condition that in the opinion of the investigator may affect a study outcome variable;
-
Are using any systemic or topical medications that in the opinion of the investigator may affect a study outcome variable;
-
Have a known sensitivity to the diagnostic pharmaceuticals to be used in the study;
-
Have undergone refractive error surgery or intraocular surgery;
-
Are a member of CORE directly involved in the study.
