Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Lens Handling on Removal [Day 27]
Participants will measure subjective lens handling at removal on a 0-100 integer scale, where 0=worst and 100=best. Results for each lens will be collected in the at-home diary on Day 27.

It is preferred that all participants are habitual frequent replacement lens wearers.
However, if this is not possible then no more than 5 participants can be habitual daily disposable lens wearers at each site, the rest must be habitual frequent replacement lens wearers;
- For the frequent replacement wearers: No more than 3 can be habitual wearers of the Avaira Vitality™/ Serenity™ brand (or their equivalent private label brand name) and no more than 3 can be habitual wearers of AIR OPTIX® plus HydraGlyde® can be enrolled at each site;
-
Has refractive astigmatism no higher than -0.75DC in each eye;
-
Can be fit and achieve binocular distance vision of at least 20/30 Snellen (Available lens parameters are sphere +6.00 to -6.00D, 0.25D steps).
Exclusion Criteria:
-
Is participating in any concurrent clinical or research study;
-
Has any known active ocular disease and/or infection that contraindicates contact lens wear;
-
Has a systemic or ocular condition that in the opinion of the investigator may affect a study outcome variable;
-
Is using any systemic or topical medications that in the opinion of the investigator may affect contact lens wear or a study outcome variable;
-
Has known sensitivity to the diagnostic sodium fluorescein used in the study;
-
Self-reports as pregnant, lactating or planning a pregnancy at the time of enrolment;
-
Has undergone refractive error surgery or intraocular surgery.
