Device: Johnson & Johnson 1-Day Acuvue Moist Contact Lens
Device: Clerio Vision Single Vision Contact Lens
Registration Number
NCT03653715
Lead Sponsor
Clerio Vision, Inc.
Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the distance, intermediate and near visual performance of Clerio designed single vision and Clerio designed LIRIC modified bifocal lenses (+2.00D add) compared to commercially available single vision and multifocal lenses.

Detailed Description

Clerio Vision Inc. has licensed a new femtosecond based laser procedure discovered by researchers at the University of Rochester known as Laser Induced Refractive Index Customization (LIRIC), which allows the alteration of the optical design of a finished soft hydrogel contact lens. Clerio Vision Inc. scientists have developed a diffractive multifocal optical design using the LIRIC procedure which shows an increase of the depth of focus of the contact lens when measured on an optical bench. It is hypothesized that a presbyopic patient wearing a soft contact lens of this design will experience an improvement in intermediate and near vision over that provided by their distance corrected single vision contact lenses, without significantly impacting their distance vision. The purpose of this feasibility study is the on-eye evaluation of the performance of the Clerio Vision designed and LIRIC modified soft contact lenses. Results from this study will guide future development of these potential products.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Comparison of Through-Focus High Contrast logMAR Visual Acuity for the Test Bifocal Contact Lens Versus that of the Control Bifocal Contact Lens, the Control Single Vision Contact Lens 1, and the Control Single Vision Contact Lens 2starting from visit 2 (after enrollment) and finishing with visit 3, the exit visit (up to 60 days after visit 2)

Visual acuity is measured under high contrast conditions (85% contrast relative to the chart background) at object testing distances of 5.3m, 2m, 1m, 67cm, 50cm and 40cm ("through-focus"), recorded in units of logMAR.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Comparison of Visual Quality for the Test Bifocal Contact Lens Versus that of the Control Bifocal Contact Lens, the Control Single Vision Contact Lens 1, and the Control Single Vision Contact Lens 2starting from visit 2 (after enrollment) and finishing with visit 3, the exit visit (up to 60 days after visit 2)

Visual quality is a subjective rating that a participant chooses using an analog rating chart ranging from 0 to 100. Participants are asked to look at the letters that they can read, not the ones that they can't, and rate how sharp those letters are, with 0 denoting "unacceptable" and 100 denoting "excellent." They are asked to reduce their score if any halos, glare, or double vision are present.

Comparison of Fitting Performance for the Test Bifocal Contact Lens Versus that of the Control Bifocal Contact Lens, the Control Single Vision Contact Lens 1, and the Control Single Vision Contact Lens 2starting from visit 2 (after enrollment) and finishing with visit 3, the exit visit (up to 60 days after visit 2)

Fitting performance is measured by visual observation of the contact lens on a participant's eye using a slit lamp biomicroscope and ocular measurement reticle. The position of the lens edge relative to the corneal boundaries both immediately before and immediately after a blink is measured.

Comparison of Through-Focus Low Contrast logMAR Visual Acuity for the Test Bifocal Contact Lens Versus that of the Control Bifocal Contact Lens, the Control Single Vision Contact Lens 1, and the Control Single Vision Contact Lens 2starting from visit 2 (after enrollment) and finishing with visit 3, the exit visit (up to 60 days after visit 2)

Visual acuity is measured under low contrast conditions (10% contrast relative to the chart background) at object testing distances of 5.3m, 2m, 1m, 67cm, 50cm and 40cm ("through-focus"), recorded in units of logMAR.
