  • Has a wearable pair of spectacles.

Who cannot join

  • Is participating in any concurrent clinical trial;
  • Is unable/unwilling to provide permission for the study site to seek CL history from their eye care practitioner
  • Has any known active ocular disease and/or infection;
  • Has a systemic condition that in the opinion of the investigator may affect a study measure or interfere with contact lens wear; this may include, but not be limited to, diabetes, hyperthyroidism, recurrent herpes simplex/zoster, Sjogren's syndromes, xerophthalmia, acne rosacea, Stevens-Johnson syndromes, and systemic connective tissue disorders e.g. rheumatoid arthritis.
  • Is using any systemic or topical medications that in the opinion of the investigator may affect a study measure;
  • Has known sensitivity to fluorescein dye, topical anesthetic, or products to be used in the study;
Show all 12Show fewer
  • Appears to have any active ocular pathology, ocular anomaly or severe insufficiency of lacrimal secretion (severe dry eye) that would affect the wearing of contact lenses;
  • Appears to have any signs of corneal inflammation or previous infection or corneal opacity/scar;
  • Is pregnant, lactating or planning a pregnancy at the time of enrolment (by verbal confirmation at the screening visit), due to potential ocular physiological changes, such as changes in the corneal shape and cell types;
  • Is aphakic;
  • Has undergone refractive error surgery, or has a history of any ocular surgery or injury.
  • Is a toric or multifocal contact lens wearer.

About this study

Official title: Comparing Habitual Daily Disposable Silicone Hydrogel (DDSH) Contact Lens Wearers to Habitual Daily Disposable Hydrogel (DDH) Contact Lens Wearers and Non-lens Wearers

This study was a multi-site, prospective, randomized, non-masked, unilateral, non-dispensing study.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study was to to compare physiological response baseline data between 3 groups - habitual wearers of Daily Disposable Silicone Hydrogel (DDSH) contact lenses, habitual wearers of Daily Disposable Hydrogel (DDH) contact lenses, and non-lens wearers. The study then compared physiological response data following wear of a low Dk HEMA contact lens between habitual wearers of DDSH and habitual wearers of DDH.

What is being measured

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

  1. Limbal Redness - DDSH, DDH, Non-lens Groups

    Objective grading (0-4, severity increases in 0.1 steps; 0=no redness, 4=severe redness) of limbal redness after 6-8 hours of habitual device wear. For each participant, measurements were taken for both eyes (OD - right eye, OS - left eye) at two locations (T - temporal, N - nasal).

    Measured: 6-8 hours of habitual wear

  2. Bulbar Redness DDSH, DDH, Non-lens Groups

    Objective grading (0-4, severity increases in 0.1 steps; 0=no redness, 4=severe redness) of bulbar redness after 6-8 hours of habitual device wear. For each participant, measurements were taken for both eyes (OD - right eye, OS - left eye) at two locations (T - temporal, N - nasal).

    Measured: 6-8 hours of habitual wear

  3. Limbal Vessel Ingrowth - DDSH, DDH, Non-lens Groups

    Number of participants with limbal vessel ingrowth longer than 0.50 mm at any of the 4 corneal quadrants (superior, inferior, nasal, temporal) after 6-8 hours of device wear.

    Measured: 6-8 hours of habitual wear

  4. Limbal Redness - DDSH, DDH Groups

    Objective grading (0-4, severity increases in 0.1 steps; 0=no redness, 4=severe redness) of limbal redness by location (T - temporal, N - nasal) and time (t). Measurements were taken at baseline and over a 3 hour period of closed-eye Test Lens wear.

    Measured: Immediately upon eye opening (t=baseline) and lens removal (t=0), 1 hour (t=1), and 3 hours (t=3) post lens removal

  5. Bulbar Redness - DDSH, DDH Groups

    Objective grading (0-4, severity increases in 0.1 steps; 0=no redness, 4=severe redness) of bulbar redness by location (T - temporal, N - nasal) and time (t). Measurements were taken at baseline and over a 3 hour period of closed-eye Test Lens wear.

    Measured: Immediately upon eye opening (baseline) and lens removal (t=0), 1 hour (t=1), and 3 hours (t=3) post lens removal

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Central Corneal Swelling (%) - DDSH, DDH Groups

    Difference in central corneal swelling (μm, Visante OCT) at baseline (before lens insertion) vs. measurements taken over a 3 hour period following Test Lens removal. Derived by the formula: corneal swelling % = (measured corneal thickness - baseline corneal thickness) x 100 /baseline corneal thickness.

    Measured: Immediately upon eye opening and lens removal (t=0), 0.5 hours (t=0.5), 1 hour (t=1), 2 hours (t=2), and 3 hours (t=3) post lens removal

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Test Lens in people with Myopia, run by CooperVision, Inc. at 2 sites in 2 countries.

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 15 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 30 Jan 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Canada, 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 30 Jan 2024). 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?

Limbal Redness - DDSH, DDH, Non-lens Groups (time frame: 6-8 hours of habitual wear). The study lists 5 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 30 Jan 2024.
