Overview
Brief Summary
Randomized, double-masked, 5-visit, bilateral dispensing, parallel group study to demonstrate that the investigational contact lens meets the design requirements related to corneal staining, lens fit, visual acuity and rotational performance as well as subjective comfort and handling. Subjects will wear the contact lenses for a total of 28-36 days.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Healthy adult males or females age ≥18-40 years of age with signed informed consent.
- •The subject must appear able and willing to adhere to the instructions set forth in this clinical protocol.
- •Subject must be a habitual soft toric contact lens wearer. Habitual wearer is defined as someone who wears contact lenses for at least 6 hours a day, 5 days a week for the past 30 days.
- •Subject's vertex corrected spherical component of their distance refraction must be between -1.00 to -4.75 Diopter (D) (inclusive) in each eye.
- •Subject's vertex corrected refractive cylinder must be between -0.75 and -1.50 DC (inclusive) in each eye.
- •Subject's refractive cylinder axis must be 180±25 and 90±15 in each eye. 7) The subject must have visual acuity best correctable to 20/25 or better for each eye 8) The subject must read and sign the Informed Consent form.
Exclusion Criteria
- •Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding, 2) Any ocular or systemic allergies or diseases that may contraindicate contact lens wear.
- •Any ocular medications use within the last one month. 4) Any systemic disease, autoimmune disease, or use of medication, which may interfere with contact lens wear.
- •Any infectious disease (e.g., hepatitis, tuberculosis) or a contagious immunosuppressive disease (e.g., HIV), by self-report.
- •Habitual wearer of extended wear contact lenses. 7) Known sensitivity to Revitalens OcuTec® 8) Any previous history of ocular and/or refractive surgery (e.g., radial keratotomy, PRK, LASIK, etc.).
- •A clinical finding or history of entropion, ectropion, extrusions, chalazia, recurrent styes, glaucoma, history of recurrent corneal erosions, aphakia, or moderate or above corneal distortion, by self-report.
- •History of binocular vision abnormality or strabismus, by self-report. 11) Habitual wearer of rigid gas permeable (RGP) lenses, orthokeratology lenses, or hybrid lenses (e.g. SynergEyes, SoftPerm) within the past 6 months.
- •Employee of investigational clinic (e.g., Investigator, Coordinator, Technician).
- •Participation in any contact lens or lens care product clinical trial within 14 days prior to study enrollment.
- •Clinically significant (grade 3 or higher) corneal edema, corneal vascularization, corneal staining, tarsal abnormalities, bulbar injection or any other abnormalities which would contraindicate contact lens wear.
- •Any history of a contact lens-related corneal inflammatory event within the past year that may contraindicate contact lens wear.
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Corneal Staining
Time Frame: Up to 4-Week Follow-up
Contact lens related corneal staining was assessed using slit lamp throughout the study. Corneal staining was graded using a 5-level scale: 0=no staining, 1=trace, 2=mild, 3=moderate and 4=severe. Corneal staining data collected during planned and unplanned visits were dichotomized whether the level of corneal stating was grade 3 or higher (unacceptable CS) or less than grade 3 (acceptable CS). The number of eyes with Grade 3 or higher was reported for each lens type.
Monocular Distance Visual Acuity (VA)
Time Frame: Up to 4-Week Follow-up
Monocular distance visual acuity was measured with the study lens using a Snellen distance VA chart at an optical distance of 20 feet throughout the study. Observed VA data collected during all planned visits were dichotomized whether VA was "20/40 or better (acceptable VA)" or "worse than 20/40 (unacceptable VA)". VA of 20/40 with a negative modifier was considered worse than 20/40. The number of eye with acceptable VA was reported for each study lens.
Lens Stability With Blink
Time Frame: 15 Minutes Post Lens Fitting
Lens rotational stability with blink was assessed using slit lamp with beam that can be rotated. The stability of the scribe mark rotational position during a series of normal (unforced) blinks was assessed, and then dichotomized whether stability was less than or equal to 5-degree (acceptable stability) or greater (unacceptable stability). The number of eye with acceptable stability was reported for each lens.
Lens Fit Acceptance
Time Frame: 15 Minutes Post Lens Fitting
Lens fit characteristics were assessed using slit lamp with respect to lens position, movement and tightness. Each lens fit collected at fitting (visit 1) was judged being either acceptable or unacceptable based on the static and dynamic fit characteristic. The number of eyes with acceptable lens fit was reported for each study lens.
Absolute Lens Rotation
Time Frame: 15-minutes Post Lens Insertion
Lens rotation was assessed using slit lamp with beam that can be rotated. The rotational error (assume shortest distance) and direction (base toward the nose or temple) were calculated, and then absolute rotation was dichotomized whether absolute rotation was less than or equal to 10-degree (acceptable rotation) or greater (unacceptable rotation). The number of eyes with acceptable lens rotation for each lens was reported.
Secondary Outcomes
- Overall Handling(Up to 4- Week Follow-up)
- Monocular Distance Visual Acuity (VA)(15 Minutes Post Lens Fitting)
- Overall Comfort(Up to 4- Week Follow-up)
