Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change From Baseline Comfort Score | Up to 2-Week Follow-up | Comfort was assessed using the Contact Lens User Experience™ (CLUE) questionnaire. CLUE is a validated patient-reported outcomes (PRO) questionnaire to assess patient-experience attributes of soft contact lenses (comfort, vision, handling, and packaging) in a contact-lens wearing population in the US, ages 18-65. Derived CLUE scores using Item Response Theory (IRT) follow a normal distribution with a population average score of 60 (SD 20), where higher scores indicate a more favorable/positive response with a range of 0-120. The change from baseline was calculated as 2-week follow-up minus baseline. The average change from baseline was reported for each arm. the change from baseline ranges from -120 to 120 where higher change from baseline comfort scores indicates a more favorable performance. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change From Baseline CLDEQ-8 Score | Up to 2-Week Follow-up | The CLDEQ-8 is a validated outcome measure for soft contact lenses wearers. It has been highly correlated with habitual baseline status and change in overall opinion when subjects are refit with contact lenses. A CLDEQ-8 total score of ≥12 is proposed to identify contact lens wearers who could benefit from clinical management of their contact lens related symptoms. A three-point change in CLDEQ-8 total scores has also been shown to be clinically important. This study will include the symptomatic subjects who will have a CLDEQ total score of ≥15. CLDEQ-8 scores range from 0 to 30 where, higher CLDEQ-8 score indicates more dry eye symptoms with respect to contact lens wear. The change is calculated as 2-week minus Baseline. The change from baseline CLDEQ-8 score ranges from -30 to 30 where lower change from baseline CLDEQ-8 scores indicate better performance. The average change in CLDEQ-8 for each arm was reported. |

Recruitment details
A total of 95 subjects were enrolled in this study. Of those enrolled, 47 were randomized to Arm1 and dispensed at least one study lens, while 45 subjects were randomized to Arm 2 and were dispensed at least 1 study lenses. All dispensed subjects in Arm 1 completed the study while only 39 of those dispensed in Arm 2 completed the study. A total of 6 subjects were discontinued from Arm 2.
