Inclusion Criteria
  • Is between 18 and 40 years of age (inclusive)
  • Has had a self-reported visual exam in the last two years
  • Is an adapted soft contact lens wearer
  • Has a contact lens spherical prescription between - 0.25 to - 8.00 (inclusive)
  • Have no less than -0.75D of astigmatism in both eyes.
  • Can achieve best corrected spectacle distance visual acuity of 20/25 (0.10 logMAR) or better in each eye.
  • Can achieve a distance visual acuity of 20/30 (0.18 logMAR) or better in each eye with the study contact lenses.
  • Has clear corneas and no active ocular disease
  • Has read, understood and signed the information consent letter.
  • Patient contact lens refraction should fit within the available parameters of the study lenses.
  • Is willing to comply with the wear schedule (at least 5 days per week, > 8 hours/day assuming there are no contraindications for doing so).
  • Is willing to comply with the visit schedule
Exclusion Criteria
  • Has a CL prescription outside the range of the available parameters of the study lenses.

  • Has a spectacle cylinder of ≥ 1.00D in either eye.

  • Has a history of not achieving comfortable CL wear (5 days per week; > 8 hours/day)

  • Has contact lens best corrected distance vision worse than 20/25 (0.10 logMAR) in either eye.

  • Presence of clinically significant (grade 2-4) anterior segment abnormalities

  • Presence of ocular or systemic disease or need of medications which might interfere with contact lens wear.

  • Slit lamp findings that would contraindicate contact lens wear such as:

    • Pathological dry eye or associated findings
    • Pterygium, pinguecula, or corneal scars within the visual axis
    • Neovascularization > 0.75 mm in from of the limbus
    • Giant papillary conjunctivitis (GCP) worse than grade 1
    • Anterior uveitis or iritis (past or present)
    • Seborrheic eczema, Seborrheic conjunctivitis
    • History of corneal ulcers or fungal infections
    • Poor personal hygiene
  • Has a known history of corneal hypoesthesia (reduced corneal sensitivity)

  • Has aphakia, keratoconus or a highly irregular cornea.

  • Has Presbyopia or has dependence on spectacles for near work over the contact lenses.

  • Has undergone corneal refractive surgery.

  • Is participating in any other type of eye related clinical or research study.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Overall Lens Fit Acceptance for Fanfilcon A (Test) Lens4-weeks

Overall fit acceptance was measured using a scale of 0-4 (0= should not be worn, 1 = borderline but unacceptable, 2 = min. acceptable, early review, 3 = not perfect but OK to dispense, and 4 = perfect)

Percentage of Lens Tightness for Somofilcon A (Habitual) Lens4-Weeks

Lens Tightness: Push Up Test measured by 0% to 100% continuous scale (0%-falls from cornea without lid support, 50% = optimum, and 100% = no movement)

Lens Centration for Somofilcon A (Habitual) Lens4- weeks

Lens Centration was measured using a 3-point scale (1=optimal centration, 2=decentration acceptable, 3=decentration unacceptable).

Post-Blink Movement for Fanfilcon A (Test) Lens4-weeks

Post-Blink movement was measured on a scale 0-4 (0=Insufficient, unacceptable movement, 4 = Excessive, unacceptable movement)

Lens Centration for Fanfilcon A (Test) Lens4- weeks

Lens Centration was measured using a 3-point scale(1=optimal centration, 2=decentration acceptable, 3=decentration unacceptable).

Lens Corneal Coverage for Somofilcon A (Habitual) Lens4 -weeks

Lens Corneal Coverage was rated as either Yes or No (Yes = full corneal coverage all time / no= incomplete corneal coverage)

Post-Blink Movement for Somofilcon A (Habitual) Lens4-weeks

Post-Blink movement was measured on a scale 0-4 (0=Insufficient, unacceptable movement, 4 = Excessive, unacceptable movement)

Percentage of Lens Tightness for Fanfilcon A (Test) Lens4-Weeks

Lens Tightness: Push Up Test measured by 0% to 100% continuous scale (0%-falls from cornea without lid support, 50% = optimum, and 100% = no movement)

Lens Corneal Coverage for Fanfilcon A (Test) Lens4-weeks

Lens Corneal Coverage was rated as either Yes or No (Yes = full corneal coverage all time / no= incomplete corneal coverage)

Overall Lens Fit Acceptance for Somofilcon A (Habitual) Lens4-weeks

Overall fit acceptance was measured using a scale of 0-4 (0= should not be worn, 1 = borderline but unacceptable, 2 = min. acceptable, early review, 3 = not perfect but OK to dispense, and 4 = perfect)
