Detailed description
The purpose of this study is to validate the clinical performance of a new contact lens design when worn over a period of 6 hours compared to nelfilcon A (control). The primary outcomes of interest are lens fit and lens fit preference.

Study design
Masking description
Both subject and investigator will be masked to lens type for each eye. A different investigator will select the study lenses for insertion by the subject, from those performing the assessments in order to maintain masking.
Intervention model description
This will be a non-dispensing, double-masked, contralateral study comparing test contact lens against a nelfilcon A control lens. Subjects will be randomized to wear the test lens in one eye and the control lens in the other. It is anticipated that this study will involve up to 2 scheduled visits, at Baseline (BL) and 6 hours.
