Visual Outcomes for Toric Efficacy Study

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Astigmatism
Myopia
Interventions
Device: Contact lenses (Soft Multifocal)
Device: Contact lenses (Orthokeratology)
Registration Number
NCT03728218
Lead Sponsor
University of Houston
Brief Summary

This is a crossover study of two types of contact lenses (toric orthokeratology and soft multifocals). Primary aims are to quantify correction of astigmatism, subjective and objective visual performance, aberrometry, peripheral refraction and bacterial bioburden between toric orthokeratology and soft toric multifocal contact lenses.
