Normal Contact Lens Wearers
Conditions
Brief summary
Crossover clinical evaluation three contact lens care regimens used for one month with Acuvue Oasys lenses.
Detailed description
This is a three-arm crossover clinical evaluation of 40 subjects who will use each of three contact lens care regimens for one month with Acuvue Oasys lenses. The subjects will be randomized on the order of solutions used: Investigational MPS, ClearCare, and Opti-Free RepleniSH MPS.
Interventions
For the cleaning, rinsing, and storage of soft contact lenses.
Peroxide-based regimen for cleaning and disinfecting soft contact lenses.
Multi-purpose disinfecting solution for the cleaning, rinsing and storing of soft contact lenses.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Corneal Staining | 4 weeks | Corneal staining will be assessed with sodium fluorescein dye on the ocular surface. The cornea is split into 5 sections, each section is evaluated by staining type, depth, and extent is graded on a 0 to 100 scale with higher scores indicating more staining. The possible total range for the total score per eye is 0 to 50,000 (100x100x100=10,000 per section) with values higher than 1200 being clinically relevant. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Subjective Lens Wearing Comfort | 4 weeks | This will be assessed by a questionnaire on patient-perceived lens comfort and any symptoms of discomfort on a 0 to 100 scale. |
| Dryness | 4 weeks | This will be assessed by the tear break-up time on the lens surface, measured in seconds. |

Outcome results
Corneal Staining
Corneal staining will be assessed with sodium fluorescein dye on the ocular surface. The cornea is split into 5 sections, each section is evaluated by staining type, depth, and extent is graded on a 0 to 100 scale with higher scores indicating more staining. The possible total range for the total score per eye is 0 to 50,000 (100x100x100=10,000 per section) with values higher than 1200 being clinically relevant.
Time frame: 4 weeks
Population: Only subjects that completed all three arms were included in analysis.
| Arm | Measure | Value (MEAN) | Dispersion |
|---|---|---|---|
| AMO Investigational MPS | Corneal Staining | 184 units on a scale | Standard Deviation 381.6 |
| Clear Care | Corneal Staining | 46.6 units on a scale | Standard Deviation 91.3 |
| OptiFree RepleniSH MPS | Corneal Staining | 77.8 units on a scale | Standard Deviation 131.7 |
Dryness
This will be assessed by the tear break-up time on the lens surface, measured in seconds.
Time frame: 4 weeks
Subjective Lens Wearing Comfort
This will be assessed by a questionnaire on patient-perceived lens comfort and any symptoms of discomfort on a 0 to 100 scale.
Time frame: 4 weeks
