A Safety and Effectiveness Study of a Contact Lens Cleaning and Disinfecting Solution
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Approximately 340 participants (680 eyes) will be enrolled in this three-month, two-arm, 1:1 randomized, parallel-group, bilateral, double-masked study at approximately 22 investigative sites in the United States. Participants will be required to wear dispensed study lenses on a daily wear basis for three months with scheduled in-office replacement of study lenses at the 1-Month and 2-Month Follow-Up Visits.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Overall comfort averaged over all scheduled follow-up visits [3 months]
Overall comfort will be assessed for each eye on a scale from 0 to 100, with 100 denoting the most favorable response
- Vision averaged over all scheduled follow-up visits [3 months]
Vision will be assessed for each eye on a scale from 0 to 100, with 100 denoting the most favorable response
- The proportion of eyes with a maximum degree of front surface deposits grade of < 2 over all scheduled follow-up visits [3 months]
The degree of front surface deposits will be graded for each eye as 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4.
- The proportion of eyes with any slit-lamp findings greater than Grade 2 over all follow-up visits. [3 months]
Graded slit-lamp findings will be assessed for each eye using Grades 0 through 4.

-
Agrees to wear study lenses on a daily wear basis for approximately three months
-
Is willing and able to comply with all treatment and follow-up/study procedures.
Exclusion Criteria:
-
Is currently using a hydrogen-peroxide cleaning and disinfecting solution
-
Participated in any drug or device clinical investigation within 30 days prior to entry into this study
-
Is a female of childbearing potential (those who are not surgically sterilized or postmenopausal) if they meet any one of the following conditions:
-
they are currently pregnant
-
they plan to become pregnant during the study
-
they are breastfeeding
-
Has worn gas permeable (GP) lenses within the last 30 days
-
Has worn polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) lenses within the last three months
-
Has typically worn their pre-study contact lenses on an extended wear basis, sleeping in their lenses one night or more per week, during the last year
-
Has any systemic disease currently affecting ocular health or which in the Investigator's opinion may have an effect on ocular health during the course of the study
-
Has any ocular disease, or is using any ocular medication.
-
Is using any medications that will, in the Investigator's opinion, affect ocular physiology or lens performance
-
Currently wears monovision, multifocal, or toric contact lenses
-
Has ocular astigmatism of 1.00D or greater in either eye
