Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to validate the clinical performance of a new contact lens design when worn over a period 1 week compared to nelfilcon A (control).
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 1 week compared to nelfilcon A (control). The primary outcomes of interest is lens fit acceptance.
Interventions
Daily disposable contact lens
Focus Dailies All Day Comfort contact lens (nelfilcon A)
Sponsors
Study design
Masking description
The contact lenses coding will be masked to both the investigator and subject. If standard labeling does not sufficiently mask the study material then over-labeling will be performed.
Intervention model description
This will be a double-masked, bilateral, 1-week crossover, dispensing study, comparing the test daily wear lens against nelfilcon A control lens, such that each lens type will be worn for 1 week each. Each subject will be randomized to wear either the test lenses or the control lenses as a matched pair.
Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Is at least 18 years of age and has full legal capacity to volunteer. * Is no greater than 55 years of age. * Has read and understood the information consent letter. * Is willing and able to follow instructions and maintain the appointment schedule. * Is an adapted soft contact lens wearer having worn lenses for a minimum of 4 weeks prior to the study. * Has spectacle cylinder ≤1.00D in both eyes. * Has spherical contact lens power requirement between -1.00D and -6.00D in both eyes. * Has manifest refraction visual acuities (VA) equal to or better than logMAR equivalent of 20/25 in each eye. * Wears CLs in both eyes (monvision acceptable, but not monofit) * Has clear corneas and no active ocular disease. * Has not worn lenses for at least 12 hours before the examination. * Is willing to wear the study contact lenses for a minimum 8 hours per day/6 days per week
Exclusion criteria
* Has never worn contact lenses before. * Has any systemic disease affecting ocular health. * Is using any systemic or topical medications that will affect ocular health. * Has any ocular pathology or severe insufficiency of lacrimal secretion (moderate to severe dry eyes) that would affect the wearing of contact lenses. * Has persistent, clinically significant corneal or conjunctival staining using sodium fluorescein dye. * Has any clinically significant lid or conjunctival abnormalities, active neovascularization or any central corneal scars. * Is aphakic. * Has strabismus/amblyopia. * Has undergone corneal refractive surgery. * Is pregnant, lactating or planning a pregnancy. * Is participating in any concurrent clinical or research study.
