Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 60 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Is between the ages of 18 to 60 and has the full legal capacity to volunteer;
  • Has read and signed an informed consent letter;
  • Agrees to refrain from the use of ocular lubricants during the study period;
  • Agrees to not to use eye-related cosmetics for upcoming study visits
  • Is willing to use the study products
  • Is willing and able to follow instructions regarding study procedures and maintain the appointment schedule;
  • Has corneal sensitivity within physiological limits.

Who cannot join

  • Is participating in any concurrent clinical or research study;
  • Is a contact lens wearer (due to reduced corneal sensitivity);
  • Has any known active* ocular disease and/or infection; including moderate and severe dry eye (OSDI ≥ 23);
  • Has a systemic (such as diabetes, thyroid disease, rheumatoid arthritis) or ocular condition (such as glaucoma) that in the opinion of the investigator may affect a study outcome variable;
  • Is using any systemic or topical medications (such as glaucoma drops, antibiotics, anti-inflammatory) that in the opinion of the investigator may affect a study outcome variable;
  • Has known sensitivity to the diagnostic pharmaceuticals to be used in the study (such as fluorescein dye to highlight structures of the eye and used regularly in optometric practice) and study products in this study;
Show all 9Show fewer
  • Is pregnant, lactating or planning a pregnancy at the time of enrolment; (due to the possibility of fluctuating vision as a consequence of variation in hormone levels);8
  • Has undergone refractive error surgery (e.g. LASIK, PRK);
  • Is a smoker (as smoking reduces tear film stability) * For the purposes of this study, active ocular disease is defined as infection or inflammation which requires therapeutic treatment. Mild (i.e. not considered clinically relevant) lid abnormalities (blepharitis, meibomian gland dysfunction, papillae), corneal and conjunctival staining and dry eye (Ocular Surface Disease Index, OSDI<23/100) are not considered active ocular disease. Neovascularization and corneal scars are the result of previous hypoxia, infection or inflammation and are therefore not active.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sensitive Eyes® Plus Saline Solution, Oust™ Demodex® Wipes™ and I-LID N LASH PLUS® Eyelid Cleanser in people with Dry Eye, run by University of Waterloo at 1 site in Canada.

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 9 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 29 Jul 2019. 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 Canada. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Participant's Subjective discomfort - Baseline (time frame: Baseline). The study lists 33 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 29 Jul 2019.
