Astigmatism
Conditions
Brief summary
This study was to evaluate the patient subjective experiences of two daily disposable toric contact lenses.
Detailed description
This was a participant masked, interventional, prospective, direct refit, bilateral wear study. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the patient subjective experiences of a hydrogel daily disposable toric contact lens when compared to a silicone hydrogel daily disposable toric contact lens after 15 minutes of daily wear each.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
A person was eligible for inclusion in the study if he/she: * Is at least 18 years of age and has full legal capacity to volunteer. * Has read and signed an information consent letter. * Self-reports having a full eye examination in the previous two years. * Anticipates being able to wear the study lenses for at least 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. * Is willing and able to follow instructions and maintain the appointment schedule. * Habitual soft contact lens wearers who currently wear toric contact lenses, or use spectacles for all distances vision correction, for the past 3 months minimum. * Has a contact lens spherical prescription between plano to - 10.00 (inclusive) best corrected visual acuity of 20/30 or better in either eye. * Has refractive astigmatism no less than -0.75D and no more than 1.75D in both eyes. * Can achieve best corrected spectacle distance visual acuity of 20/25 (0.10 logMAR) or better in each eye. * Can achieve a distance visual acuity of 20/30 (0.18 logMAR) or better in each eye with the study contact lenses. * Has clear corneas and no active ocular disease. * Has read, understood, and signed the information consent letter.
Exclusion criteria
A person was excluded from the study if he/she: 1. Is participating in any concurrent clinical or research study. 2. Has any known active ocular disease and/or infection that contraindicates contact lens wear. 3. Has a systemic condition that in the opinion of the investigator may affect a study outcome variable. 4. Is using any systemic or topical medications that in the opinion of the investigator may affect contact lens wear or a study outcome variable. 5. Has known sensitivity to the diagnostic sodium fluorescein used in the study. 6. Self-reports as pregnant, lactating or planning a pregnancy at the time of enrolment. 7. Has undergone refractive error surgery or intraocular surgery.
