Clinical Comparison of Silicone Hydrogel Monthly Lenses
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare AIR OPTIX® plus HydraGlyde (AOHG) contact lenses to ACUVUE® VITA® (VITA) contact lenses for total lipid uptake (total of surface and bulk uptake) after 30 days of wear by high lipid depositors.

Other: Lotrafilcon B, then senofilcon C Lotrafilcon B contact lenses worn first, followed by senofilcon C contact lenses, as randomized. Each product worn bilaterally (in both eyes) for a total duration of 30 (+ 3) days under a daily wear modality for the specific study period. The lenses will be removed every night and cared for with the subject's habitual lens care solution. |

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Mean Ex-vivo Total Lipid Uptake (Total of Surface and Bulk Uptake) Per Lens [Day 30 after 10 hours of wear, each product]
Contact lens was removed aseptically from the eye. Total lipid (fatty deposits) uptake, defined as total amount of lipids (surface and bulk) absorbed/adsorbed and extracted, was measured in micrograms. A lower value indicates better results. Only one lens from each subject contributed to the analysis.
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

Any anterior segment infection, inflammation, disease or abnormality that contraindicates contact lens wear (within 7 days of enrollment, or current)
-
History of herpetic keratitis, corneal surgery, or irregular cornea;
-
Any use of systemic or ocular medications for which contact lens wear could be contraindicated, as determined by the Investigator;
-
