Show all 14Show fewer
  • Require a prescription between +8.00D and -12.00D and have less than or equal to 0.75D of astigmatism in both eyes.
  • Achieve visual acuity of 20/25 or better in each eye with a spherical contact lens prescription.
  • Have normal eyes with no evidence of abnormality or disease. For the purposes of this study a normal eye is defined as one having:
  • No amblyopia.
  • No evidence of lid abnormality or infection (e.g. entropion, ectropion, chalazia, recurrent styes).
  • lamp findings Grade 2 or above: corneal edema, tarsal abnormalities, and conjunctival injection).
  • No other active ocular disease (e.g. glaucoma, history of recurrent corneal erosions, cornea [infiltrates], conjunctiva, lids, and intraocular infection or inflammation of an allergic, bacterial, or viral etiology).
  • No aphakia.

Who cannot join

  • 0.75D or greater of refractive astigmatism in either eye.
  • Presbyopic or current monovision contact lens wear.
  • Cannot be currently wearing either lenses (Avaira or Oasys).
  • Presence of clinically significant (grade 2-4) anterior segment abnormalities; inflammation such as iritis; or any infection of the eye, lids, or associated structures.
  • Presence of ocular or systemic disease or need of medication which might interfere with contact lens wear.
  • Slit lamp findings that would contraindicate contact lens wear such as:

  • Pathological dry eye or associated findings
  • Pterygium, pinguecula or corneal scars within the visual axis
  • Neovascularization > 0.75 mm in from the limbus
  • Giant papillary conjunctivitis (GPC) worse than Grade 1
  • Anterior uveitis or iritis (past or present)
  • Seborrheic eczema, seborrheic conjunctivitis
  • History of corneal ulcer or fungal infections
  • Poor personal hygiene
  • A known history of corneal hypoesthesia (reduced corneal sensitivity)
  • Contact Lens best corrected Snellen visual acuities (VA) worse than 20/30.
  • Aphakia, Keratoconus or a highly irregular cornea.

About this study

The purpose of this study was to investigate the overall clinical comfort performance of enfilcon A (test) lens and senofilcon A (control) lens over 15-minutes of lens wear.

Read the detailed description

This was a non-dispensing, single-masked, randomized, contralateral study comparing Enfilcon A (test) against Senofilcon A (control). Each subject was randomized to wear the test lens in one eye and the control lens in the other eye.

What is being measured

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

  1. Comfort at Insertion

    Participant's response for comfort at insertion. (Scale 0-10; 0=poor/intolerable, 10=comfortable/ cannot be felt) Obtained at baseline.

    Measured: Baseline

  2. Comfort at Insertion

    Participant's response for comfort at 15 minutes. (Scale 0-10; 0=poor/intolerable, 10=comfortable/ cannot be felt) Obtained at 15 minutes.

    Measured: 15 minutes

  3. Comfort Preference

    Participant's response for comfort preference of enfilcon A (test) lens, senofilcon A(control) lens at insertion.

    Measured: Baseline

  4. Comfort Preference

    Participant's response for comfort of enfilcon A (test) lens, senofilcon A (control) lens at 15 minutes wear.

    Measured: 15 minutes

What does the primary outcome measure?

Comfort at Insertion (time frame: 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 23 Nov 2020.
