About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Feasibility of Fitting of Apioc Contact Lenses in Adults

This clinical trial will document the feasibility of the Apioc lens design by assessing which lens shape parameters yield successful on-eye-fit and movement of the Apioc contact lens design and evaluate the subjectively-reported comfort of the Apioc contact lens design.

Read the detailed description

This is a one-site, non-dispensing clinical trial using the Apioc contact lens design. This soft contact lens study will determine the feasibility of this design by determining which parameters of the shape of the Apioc Contact Lens design will yield a successful fit across subjects. We will also determine the percentage of subjects who can be successfully fitted with the Apioc Contact Lens Design. Because the feasibility of the lens design may be dependent upon age, a total of 50 subjects (10 subjects each across 5 decades of life) will complete the study. The data will be collected in a single visit for most subjects. A few subjects may be asked to return for a second visit if additional contact lens parameters need to be ordered to achieve a successful fit. The key assessments for this study will be demonstration of feasibility of fit, documentation of movement in all gazes, including translation, and subjective reports of comfort. Subjects will only wear contact lenses while in the office.

What is being measured

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

  1. Vertical Movement of Contact Lens in Downgaze

    Vertical movement of the contact lens relative to the eye in downgaze in millimeters.

    Measured: After 15 minutes of on-eye settling

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Movement of contact lens with blink

    Movement of contact lens in straight-ahead gaze with a blink in millimeters.

    Measured: After 15 minutes of on-eye settling

  2. Visual Acuity

    logMAR visual acuity at 40 cm through the contact lens with distance correction in trial frame over the Apioc contact lens.

    Measured: After 15 minutes of on-eye settling

  3. Comfort questionnaire

    Subjects will be asked to assess the comfort of each lens by marking an "X" on a line between 0 and 100.

    Measured: After 15 minutes of on-eye settling

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Apioc Contact Lens Design in people with Ametropia and Myopia, run by Lentechs, LLC 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 4 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 Jan 2022. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Vertical Movement of Contact Lens in Downgaze (time frame: After 15 minutes of on-eye settling). 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 Jan 2022.
