What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Average Corneal Staining Area

    Percentage corneal staining was assessed by the investigator for each of five regions of the cornea, i.e., four quadrants plus central. The investigator instilled fluorescein dye and examined the cornea with a slit lamp, i.e., biomicroscope and a yellow filter. Percentage corneal staining area was recorded in increments of ten, and the percentages of the five regions were averaged together.

    Measured: After 2 hours of wear

  2. Total Corneal Staining Type

    Total corneal staining type was assessed by the investigator for each of 5 regions of the cornea, i.e., four quadrants plus central. The investigator instilled fluorescein dye and examined the cornea with a slit lamp, i.e., biomicroscope and a yellow filter. Corneal staining type was recorded on a 5-point scale for each region: 0-none; 1-micropunctate; 2-macropunctate; 3-coalesced macropunctate; 4-patch (>/= 1mm). The five regions were summed.

    Measured: After 2 hours of wear

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Ocular Comfort

    Ocular comfort was recorded by the participant on a questionnaire using a 5-point scale. Participant completed the sentence, "Right now my eyes feel..." with one of the following responses: 1-very comfortable; 2-comfortable; 3-neither comfortable nor uncomfortable; 4-uncomfortable; 5-very uncomfortable.

    Measured: After 2 hours of wear

  2. Ocular Redness

    Ocular redness was recorded by the participant on a questionnaire using a 5-point scale. Participant completed the sentence, "Right now my eyes look..." with one of the following responses: 1-very white; 2-white; 3-neither white nor red; 4-red; 5-very red.

    Measured: After two hours of wear

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Nelfilcon A contact lens, Etafilcon A contact lens and FID 107027 solution in people with Myopia, run by Alcon Research at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Average Corneal Staining Area (time frame: After 2 hours of wear). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Dec 2011.
