What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Corrected Visual Acuity of 0.0 or Better

    Corrected visual acuity was measured with a digitized logMAR (logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution) chart. A logMAR acuity of 0.0 is considered normal distance eyesight.

    Measured: Up to 16 hours after lens insertion

  2. Pre-Lens Noninvasive Tear Break-Up Time

    The pre-lens tear film is the layer of tears located on top of the contact lens (i.e., between the eye lid and the contact lens). The time required for a dry spot to appear on the corneal surface after blinking is referred to as the tear film break-up time. Circular images were projected onto the corneal surface using a CA-1000 topographer, and the tear film reflection was observed on a 30-inch flat panel monitor. PL-NITBUT was recorded at the first sign of image distortion. Three measurements were taken and averaged together. A higher number represents a lengthening in the tear film break up time.

    Measured: Up to 16 hours after lens insertion

  3. Average Tear Meniscus Height

    The tear meniscus height, i.e., the distance between the line of reflection along the top of the tear prism to the edge of the eyelid, was measured by the investigator using a digital slit lamp.

    Measured: Up to 16 hours after lens insertion

  4. Average Ocular Surface Temperature

    Ocular surface temperature (OST) was recorded by the investigator using a dynamic, non-contact, infrared thermography camera. The average OST (encompassing the wear of a contact lens) was taken at the center of the cornea, at the temporal upper limbal area, and over the central 5 mm2 of the cornea, 2 seconds post-blink.

    Measured: Up to 16 hours after lens insertion

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Subjective Comfort

    Overall comfort was assessed by the participant and recorded on a scale from 0 (poor) to 10 (excellent) in response to the question, "How comfortable is the lens feeling at present?"

    Measured: Up to 16 hours after lens insertion

  2. Subjective Vision

    Overall vision was assessed by the participant on scale from 0 (poor) to 10 (excellent) in response to the question, "What is the quality of your vision with the lens at present?"

    Measured: Up to 16 hours after lens insertion

  3. Number of Participants With Adequate Lens Fit

    Lens fit was assessed by the investigator with a biomicroscope (slit lamp).

    Measured: Up to 16 hours after lens insertion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing delefilcon A contact lens and narafilcon A contact lens in people with Myopia, run by CIBA VISION at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Apr 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United Kingdom. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 16 Jan 2013). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants With Corrected Visual Acuity of 0.0 or Better (time frame: Up to 16 hours after lens insertion). The study lists 4 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 17 Apr 2013.
