Performance Evaluation of Two Silicone Hydrogel Toric Lens Designs in Habitual Soft Contact Lens Wearers
- Conditions
- Astigmatism
- Registration Number
- NCT05933772
- Lead Sponsor
- CooperVision International Limited (CVIL)
- Brief Summary
- The objective of the study was to compare the clinical performance of two monthly toric silicone hydrogel contact lenses in habitual wearers, when worn for 1-month each. 
- Detailed Description
- This study was a prospective, bilateral eye, subjected-masked, randomized, 1-month cross-over, daily-wear design involving two different silicone hydrogel toric lens types. Each lens type will be worn bilaterally for approximately one month.
