Brief Summary

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the subjective and objective performance and the physiological response to AIR OPTIX® COLORS soft contact lenses compared with AIR OPTIX® AQUA contact lenses in participants with normal eyes and prescription needs.

Detailed Description

This study consisted of 7 scheduled visits conducted over a 3-month period. Enrolled participants were randomized (2:1) to receive either AIR OPTIX® COLORS lenses in both eyes or AIR OPTIX® AQUA lenses in both eyes.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Contact Lens-Corrected Distance Monocular Snellen Visual Acuity (VA) (20/30 or Better)Up to Month 3

Visual acuity, as assessed for each eye individually. Participant read a distance Snellen chart while wearing study lenses. The percentage of eyes with VA recorded as 20/30 or better is reported. Both eyes contributed to the percentage.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Subjective Rating of Overall VisionUp to Month 3

Overall vision, as rated by the participant on a 10-point scale, with 1 being poor and 10 being excellent. The participant rated both eyes together by providing one single rating.

Subjective Rating of Overall ComfortUp to Month 3

Overall comfort, as rated by the participant on a 10-point scale, with 1 being poor and 10 being excellent. The participant rated both eyes together by providing one single rating.

Subjective Rating of Overall HandlingUp to Month 3

Overall handling, as rated by the participant on a 10-point scale, with 1 being difficult and 10 being easy. The participant rated both eyes together by providing one single rating.

Lens Fit (Optimal, Acceptably Loose, Acceptably Tight)Up to Month 3

Lens fit, as assessed by the investigator for each eye individually. Lens fit was rated on a 5-point scale: 2=unacceptably loose, 1=acceptably loose, 0=optimal, -1=acceptably tight, -2=unacceptably tight. The combined percentage of lenses assessed as "optimal," "acceptably loose," or "acceptably tight" is reported. Lenses from both eyes contributed to the percentage.

Lens Centration (Centered, Slight Decentration)Up to Month 3

Lens centration, as assessed by the investigator for each eye individually. Lens centration was rated on a 5-point scale: 0=centered, 1=slight decentration, 2=mild decentration, 3=moderate decentration, 4=severe decentration. The combined percentage of lenses assessed as "centered" or "slight decentration" is reported. Lenses from both eyes contributed to the percentage.

Dry Areas/Non-Wetting (None, Very Slight)Up to Month 3

Dry areas/non-wetting (i.e., assessment of the disruption of the front surface wettability of the contact lens), as assessed by the investigator for each eye individually. Dry areas/non-wetting was rated on a 5-point scale: 0=none, 1=very slight, 2=slight, 3=moderate, 4=severe. The combined percentage of lenses assessed as "none" or "very slight" is reported. Lenses from both eyes contributed to the percentage.

Front Surface Deposits (None, Very Slight)Up to Month 3

Front surface deposits on the contact lens, as assessed by the investigator for each eye individually. Front surface deposits were rated on a 5-point scale: 0=none, 1=very slight, 2=slight, 3=moderate, 4=severe. The combined percentage of lenses assessed as "none" or "very slight" is reported. Lenses from both eyes contributed to the percentage.

Back Surface Deposits (None, Very Slight)Up to Month 3

Back surface deposits on the contact lens, as assessed by the investigator for each eye individually. Back surface deposits were rated on a 5-point scale: 0=none, 1=very slight, 2=slight, 3=moderate, 4=severe. The combined percentage of lenses assessed as "none" or "very slight" is reported. Lenses from both eyes contributed to the percentage.
