Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Distance High Contrast logMAR Visual Acuity at 1 Week [Baseline & 1 week]
Mean difference in distance high contrast logMAR over all lens VAs (visual acuity) from Baseline and 1 Week
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Slit Lamp Findings ≥ Grade 2 [1 week]
Slit lamp findings are measured on a scale of 0-4, where 0=none, and 4=severe. The slit lamp exam is a routine procedure done to evaluate eye health and determine eligibility for clinical trial. It provides view of the different parts of the eye. During the exam, a doctor can look at the front parts of the eye, including the cornea, the lens, the iris and other parts of the anterior segment of the eye. Fluorescein dye may be used during a slit lamp examination to make it easier to detect inflammation, infections, or injured area on the cornea.
- Overall Comfort [1 week]
Comfort measured by participant on a scale of 0-100 with 100 being the most favorable.
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
-
Have physiologically normal anterior segments not exhibiting clinically significant biomicroscopy findings.
-
Be myopic and require lens correction from -0.50 D to -5.50 D in each eye.
Exclusion Criteria:
-
Any systemic disease affecting ocular health.
-
Using any systemic or topical medications that will affect ocular physiology or lens performance.
-
An active ocular disease, any corneal infiltrative response or are using any ocular medications.
-
Any "Present" finding during the slit lamp examination that, in the Investigator's judgment, interferes with contact lens wear.
-
Allergic to any component in the study care products.

Study Results
Participant Flow
Recruitment Details | Participants recruited for this 2-week study conducted at three investigational sites in the USA. The first participant was enrolled on 12/17/2010; the last participant exited the study on 01/20/2011. |
---|---|
Pre-assignment Detail | 66 participants enrolled; 64 participants completed. Half wore Investigational Lens for 1 week then crossed over to Air Optix Aqua lens for 1 week. The other half wore Air Optix Aqua Lens for 1 week then crossed over to Investigational Lens for 1 week. The order of lens use was randomized and participant-masked. |
