What is being measured

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

  1. Corneal Fluorescein Staining Type at Baseline

    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, for a maximum score of 20. A lower score represents a more desirable outcome.

    Measured: Day 0 (Baseline)

  2. Corneal Fluorescein Staining Type at Day 30

    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, for a maximum score of 20. A lower score represents a more desirable outcome.

    Measured: Day 30

  3. Corneal Fluorescein Staining Area at Baseline

    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. The area (extent) of corneal staining for each of the five areas was estimated [i.e., 0% (no staining in the region) to 100% (staining covers entire region)], for a maximum score of 100% per eye. A lower score represents a more desirable outcome.

    Measured: Day 0 (Baseline)

  4. Corneal Fluorescein Staining Area at Day 30

    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. The area (extent) of corneal staining for each of the five areas was estimated [i.e., 0% (no staining in the region) to 100% (staining covers entire region)], for a maximum score of 100% per eye. A lower score represents a more desirable outcome.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing OPTI-FREE PureMoist multipurpose disinfecting solution in people with Healthy, 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 7 inclusion and 12 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 19 Nov 2012. 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 States. 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 19 Nov 2012). 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?

Corneal Fluorescein Staining Type at Baseline (time frame: Day 0 (Baseline)). 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 19 Nov 2012; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
