Trial summary

Toric SCL combined spheric lens power with cylinder power and axis. However, in Indonesia, the availability of cylinder power and axis parameter variations between products are still narrow, with stock-keeping units (SKUs) options only between 0.75-2.75 DC and 10o-180o for power and axis, respectively.

About this study

Toric SCL combined spheric lens power with cylinder power and axis. However, in Indonesia, the availability of cylinder power and axis parameter variations between products are still narrow, with stock-keeping units (SKUs) options only between 0.75-2.75 DC and 10o-180o for power and axis, respectively. Providing accurate toric SCL prescription for astigmatism patient in Indonesia remains a challenge for ophthalmologists and generally could not be achieved. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the effect of power undercorrection and axis misalignment on visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, visual clarity, visual satisfaction, and vision acceptability.

The inclusion criteria for the trial, include: (1) 20 to 40 years of age without the need for presbyopic correction, (2) mild to moderate myopia patients, sphere between -1.00 and - 6.00 D combined with cylinder between -0.75 to -3.00 DC in at least one eye, (3) corrected distance visual acuity (VA) of with Toric SCL 6/15 or better bilaterally. Exclusion criteria include: (1) a history of contact lens use 6 months prior to trial, (2) history of previous ocular surgery, (3) anterior and posterior segment abnormalities, (4) manifest strabismus or dry eye, and (5) ocular and systemic diseases that would preclude CL wear or decrease visual acuity; and pregnancy or lactation.

Detailed Procedure

Baseline refraction and clinical manifestations were determined during initial visit which each participants attended three assessment visits on a separate day. Baseline visual acuity was measured using Snellen chart, contrast sensitivity was measured using Pelli-Robson chart, and VAS (Visual Analog Scale, with 10 being the best indicator) was utilized to measure monocular clarity (1=blurred, 10=clear), satisfaction (1=satisfied, 10=unsatisfied), and vision acceptability (1=unacceptable, 10=perfectly acceptable).

Participants were fitted on their diseased eye, which could be unilateral or bilateral, with the toric SCL. Lens fit (corneal coverage, centration, movement, and rotation) was examined using slit-lamp examination. Regarding lens rotation, modification of the toric SCL axis was determined using the "LARS" (left add, right subtract) method for proper contact lens fitting. The shifting axis in toric SCL was assessed by observing the shift marker on contact lens in a clockwise or anticlockwise direction; then if any, it was corrected using LARS formula. A disposable toric lens investigated in this work is 2-Weeks Acuvue Moist for Astigmatism (2WAMfA), a common hydrogel conventional toric lenses.

The assessment visits interval is 1 week and completed exactly on day 14 after their first baseline visit. At each assessment visit, three different cylinder power were tested: 1) full cylinder power, 2) under-correction of cylinder power by 0.5 D, and 3) under-correction of cylinder power by 1.0 DC. Axis was also misaligned by -10° and +10° for each cylinder power alteration. The powers and axis assigned to the participants were randomized during every assessment visit. Baseline assessments and treatment allocations were masked to both patients and physician. All assessments were carried out on the day of observation and recorded on the subject evaluation sheet in accordance with the sample data, in which examinations results.

The record lists 1 site in Indonesia. 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?

Visual acuity (time frame: Week 1 and week 2). 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 22 Apr 2025.
