Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Proportion of Eyes With Grade 3 or Higher Slit Lamp Findings | Up to 1-Week Follow-up | Slit Lamp Findings (SLF) were assessed using a biomicroscope and was graded using the FDA grading scale (Grade: 0, 1,2, 3 and 4) with grade 0 represents the absence of findings and 1 to 4 representing successively worse findings (i.e. Grade 1 = trace, Grade 2 = Mild, Grade 3 = moderate and Grade 4 = severe). This was performed on each subject eye at every study visit (baseline, unscheduled visits and 1-week follow-up). The data was then dichotomized into two groups. Those with grade 3 or higher and those with grade 2 or lower. The proportion of eyes with SLF with grade 3 or higher was reported for each lens. |
| Proportion of Eyes With Rotational Stability Less Than or Equal to 5 Degrees | 15-minutes after lens insertion | Rotational Stability was assessed for each subject eye using a slit lamp 15-minutes after lens insertion. Rotational Stability was dichotomized into a binary response where Y=1 if Rotational Stability was less than or equal to 5 degrees and Y=0 otherwise (Rotational Stability greater than 5 degrees). The proportion of eyes with Rotational Stability less than or equal to 5 degrees was report for each lens. |
| Proportion of Eyes With Acceptable Lens Fitting | Up to 1-Week Follow-up | Contact lens fitting acceptance was assessed for each subject eye using a biomicroscope post lens insertion at the 1-week follow-up. Lens fit was a binary variable where acceptable lens fit=1 and unacceptable lens fit=0. The proportion of eyes with acceptable lens fit was reported for each lens. |
| Distance Monocular logMAR Visual Acuity | 1-Week Follow-up | Distance Monocular visual acuity was measured on a logMAR (Logarithm of Minimal Angle of Resolution) scale under high luminance high contrast condition. Visual acuity is assessed using ETDRS (Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study) charts. Letter-by-letter results calculated the visual performance score for each chart read. LogMAR scores closer to zero, or below zero, indicate a better visual acuity. A logMAR visual performance score of 0.0 is equivalent to Snellen visual acuity of 20/20. |
| CLUE Vision Score | 1-Week Follow-up | Subjective vision 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. |
| Proportion of Eyes With Absolute Rotation Less Than or Equal to 10 Degrees | 15-minutes after lens insertion | Absolute rotation was assessed for each subject eye using a slit lamp 15-minutes after lens insertion. Acceptable absolute rotation was dichotomized into a binary response where Y=1 if absolute rotation was less than or equal to 10 degrees and Y=0 otherwise (absolute rotation greater than 10 degrees). The proportion of eyes with absolute rotation less than or equal to 10 degrees was report for each lens. |
