Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Potential subjects must satisfy all of the following criteria to be enrolled in the study: 1. Read, understand, and sign the STATEMENT OF INFORMED CONSENT and receive a fully executed copy of the form. 2. Appear able and willing to adhere to the instructions set forth in this clinical protocol. 3. Be between 18 and 39 (inclusive) years of age at the time of screening. 4. By self-report, habitually wear soft contact lenses in both eyes in a daily reusable or daily disposable wear modality (i.e. not extended wear modality). Habitual wear is defined as a minimum of 6 hours of wear per day, for a minimum of 2 days per week during last 30 days. 5. Possess a wearable pair of spectacles that provide correction for distance vision. 6. In both eyes, have astigmatic refractive error suitable for correction with the toric contact lens powers available in this study: 1. Sphere powers (DS) -1.50 through -4.00 (inclusive) in 0.25 steps 2. Cylinder powers (DC) -0.75 and -1.25 3. Axes (°) 170, 180, 10, 80, 90, 100 7. Have best corrected monocular distance visual acuity of 20/30 or better in each eye. Potential subjects who meet any of the following criteria will be excluded from participating in the study: 1. Be currently pregnant or lactating. 2. Be diabetic. 3. Be currently using any ocular medications or have an ocular infection of any type. 4. By self-report, have any ocular or systemic disease, allergies, infection, or use of medication that might contraindicate or interfere with contact lens wear, or otherwise compromise study endpoints, including infectious disease (e.g., hepatitis, tuberculosis), contagious immunosuppressive disease (e.g., Human Immunodeficiency Virus \[HIV\]), autoimmune disease (e.g. rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren's syndrome), or history of serious mental illness or seizures. See section 9.1 for additional details regarding excluded systemic medications. 5. Have habitually worn rigid gas permeable (RGP) lenses, orthokeratology lenses, or hybrid lenses (e.g. SynergEyes, SoftPerm) within the past 6 months. 6. Be currently wearing monovision or multifocal contact lenses. 7. Be currently wearing lenses in an extended wear modality. 8. Have a history of strabismus or amblyopia. 9. Be an employee (e.g., Investigator, Coordinator, Technician) or immediate family member of an employee (including partner, child, parent, grandparent, grandchild or sibling of the employee or their spouse) of the clinical site. 10. Have participated in a contact lens or lens care product clinical trial within 7 days prior to study enrollment. 11. Have clinically significant (grade 3 or higher on the FDA grading scale) slit lamp findings (e.g., corneal edema, neovascularization or staining, tarsal abnormalities or bulbar injection) or other corneal or ocular disease or abnormalities that contraindicate contact lens wear or may otherwise compromise study endpoints (including entropion, ectropion, chalazia, recurrent styes, glaucoma, history of recurrent corneal erosions, aphakia, moderate or above corneal distortion, herpetic keratitis). 12. Have fluctuations in vision due to clinically significant dry eye or other ocular conditions. 13. Have had or have planned (within the study period) any ocular or intraocular surgery (e.g., radial keratotomy, Photorefractive Keratectomy \[PRK\], Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis \[LASIK\], iridotomy, retinal laser photocoagulation, etc.).
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 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 better visual acuity. A logMAR visual performance score of 0.0 is equivalent to Snellen visual acuity of 20/20. |
| 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 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 reported for each lens. |
| 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 were 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 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. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 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. |
| CLUE Comfort Score | 1-Week Follow-up | Subjective 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. |
| CLUE Handling Score | 1-Week Follow-up | Subjective handling 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. |
