A Clinical Evaluation of Two Contact Lenses Used With Three Care Systems
- Conditions
- Myopia
- Interventions
- Device: comfilcon ADevice: fanfilcon A
- Registration Number
- NCT04195581
- Lead Sponsor
- Coopervision, Inc.
- Brief Summary
The objective of the study was to compare the clinical performance of the two contact lenses when used in combination with three care systems.
- Detailed Description
This was a randomized, open-label, crossover study, controlled by cross-comparison. Subjects were randomized to wear each lens and solution combination for a month in random sequence; that is for a total of six months.

- They are willing and able to follow the protocol.
- They are an existing wearer of reusable, single vision, spherical soft contact lenses.
- They have a contact lens spherical prescription between -1.00 to - 6.50D (inclusive)

- They are using any topical medication such as eye drops or ointment.
- They have had cataract surgery.
- They have had corneal refractive surgery.
- They have any corneal distortion resulting from previous hard or rigid lens wear or have keratoconus.
- They are pregnant or breastfeeding.
- They have any ocular abnormality which would, in the opinion of the investigator, normally contraindicate contact lens wear.
- They have any infectious disease which would, in the opinion of the investigator, contraindicate contact lens wear or pose a risk to study personnel; or they have any immunosuppressive disease (e.g. HIV), or a history of anaphylaxis or severe allergic reaction.
- They have taken part in any other contact lens or care solution clinical trial or research, within two weeks prior to starting this study.
