Brief summary

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance of a novel silicone hydrogel contact lens, DAILIES TOTAL1® (DT1) compared to the standard hydrogel material in 1-DAY ACUVUE® MOIST® (1DAVM) contact lens in contact lens wearers identified as having contact lens-related dryness symptoms.

Detailed description

Three study visits occurred over the course of 28 ± 3 days.

Interventions

Silicone hydrogel contact lenses for daily wear, daily disposable use

Inclusion criteria

* Be of legal age of consent and sign written Informed Consent Document and HIPAA form. * Currently wearing soft contact lenses and identified as having contact lens-related dryness symptoms based upon responses to the Contact Lens Dry Eye Questionnaire. * Wearing either daily disposable contact lenses or bi-weekly/monthly replacement contact lenses, daily wear use only (no extended wear use). * Able to achieve distance visual acuity of at least 20/25 in each eye with study lenses in the available parameters, -0.50D to -6.00D. * Willing to wear study lenses for at least 8 hours/day and at least 5 days/week. * Willing and able to follow instructions and maintain the appointment schedule. * Other protocol-defined inclusion criteria may apply.

Exclusion criteria

* Neophyte or current wearer of DAILIES TOTAL1® or 1-DAY ACUVUE® MOIST™ contact lenses. * Requires monovision or presbyopic correction. * Any systemic or ocular disease or disorder complicating factors or structural abnormality that would negatively affect the conduct or outcome of the study. * Recent (within 7 days of enrollment) or current ocular infection, active ocular inflammation, glaucoma or preauricular lymphadenopathy. * Clinically significant lash or lid abnormality. * Systemic disease that, in the investigator's best judgment, would prohibit or confound safe contact lens wear. * History of ocular surgery/trauma within the last 6 months. * Topical or systemic antibiotics use within 7 days of enrollment. * Other protocol-defined

MeasureTime frameDescription
Mean Change From Baseline in Subjective Contact Lens-related Dryness Symptoms at Week 4 as Assessed by the CLDEQDay 0, Week 4Contact lens symptoms were evaluated using the Contact Lens and Dry Eye Questionnaire (CLDEQ). The participant indicated the frequency with which 9 common contact lens-related ocular surface dryness symptoms were experienced over the previous week. Each symptom was rated on a 5-point scale (1=never, 5=constantly). Both eyes contributed to the mean. A more negative change number indicates a greater perceived improvement, namely, lessening of the symptom.

Mean Change From Baseline in Subjective Contact Lens-related Dryness Symptoms at Week 4 as Assessed by the CLDEQ

Contact lens symptoms were evaluated using the Contact Lens and Dry Eye Questionnaire (CLDEQ). The participant indicated the frequency with which 9 common contact lens-related ocular surface dryness symptoms were experienced over the previous week. Each symptom was rated on a 5-point scale (1=never, 5=constantly). Both eyes contributed to the mean. A more negative change number indicates a greater perceived improvement, namely, lessening of the symptom.

Time frame: Day 0, Week 4
