Group Intervention Description Somofilcon A multifocal lens somofilcon A multifocal lens Habitual wearers of multifocal contact lenses will be refit to somofilcon A multifocal lens and provide a subjective assessment.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Vision Clarity During the Day - Distance Vision 3 weeks Subjective expectation - Vision clarity during the day - distance vision was measured from three subjective expectation responses completed at the office. The responses were assigned numbers as below:
Fell short of expectations = 1 Met my expectations = 2 Exceeded my expectations = 3
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Visual Acuity 3 weeks Distance visual acuity (logMAR)
Ease of Insertion 3 weeks Subjective rating how easy lens was inserted on eye for somofilcon A multifocal lens (1 = Fell short of expectation, 2 = Met expectation, 3 = Exceeded expectations)
Ease of Removal 3 weeks Subjective rating for somofilcon A multifocal lens on how easy lens was removed from eye (1 = Fell short of expectation, 2 = Met expectation, 3 = Exceeded expectations)
Overall Satisfaction Preference Between Study and Habitual Contact Lenses 3 weeks Subjective satisfaction preference between study and habitual contact lenses (Fell short of expectations, Met ,my expectations, Exceeded my expectations))
Corneal Staining 3 weeks Corneal staining will be assessed for extent (0-100) with 0 indicating no staining/indentation and 100 indicating deep confluent staining or severe indentation for following regions: Temporal, Superior, Nasal, Inferior and Central.
Conjunctival Staining 3 weeks Conjunctival staining will be assessed using CORE integer scale (0-100) with 0 indicating no staining/indentation and 100 indicating deep confluent staining or severe indentationfor following regions: Temporal, Superior, Nasal, Inferior.
Subjective Vision Satisfaction - Near Vision 3 weeks Subjective satisfaction of near vision while reading on cell phone and hand-held materials for somofilcon A multifocal lens (1 = fell short of expectation, 2 = met expectation, 3 = exceed expectation)
Overall Satisfaction With Speed of Changing Focus 3 weeks Subjective rating for speed and ability to change focus between distances for somofilcon A multifocal lens (1 = Fell short of expectation, 2 = Met expectation, 3 = Exceeded expectations)
Overall Preference Between Study and Habitual Contact Lenses for Lifestyle 3 weeks Preference of contact lens for the whole range of tasks (Prefer strongly, Prefer slightly, No preference, Prefer study lenses slightly, Prefer study lenses strongly)
Post-blink Lens Movement 3 weeks Movement of lens on eye after blink was graded on a 5-point scale (0-4, 1 steps) as follows: 0 - insufficient, 1 - minimal but acceptable, 2 - optimal, 3 - moderate but acceptable , and 4 - excessive unacceptable.
Bulbar Hyperemia 3 weeks Grading hyperemia of bulbar conjunctiva on a scale ranged from 0-4 and in 0.50 steps, with 0 indicating no hyperemia and 4 indicating severe hyperemia.
Subjective Vision Satisfaction - Long Intermediate Vision 3 weeks Subjective satisfaction of long intermediate vision while using desktop computer for somofilcon A multifocal lens (1= fell short of expectation, 2= met expectation, 3= exceed expectation)
Overall Comfort 3 weeks Subjective rating of comfort for habitual lens and somofilcon A multifocal lens at 3 weeks (Prefer my own strongly, Prefer my own slightly, No preference, Prefer study lenses slightly, Prefer study lenses strongly)
Number of Participants With Lens Centration 3 weeks Lens centration on the cornea (Optimum, Acceptable decentration, Unacceptable decentration (\>=0.5mm))
Subjective Vision Satisfaction - Driving at Night 3 weeks Subjective satisfaction of distance vision while driving at night responses for somofilcon A multifocal lens (1= fell short of expectation, 2 = met expectation, 3= exceed expectation)
Subjective Vision Satisfaction - Short Intermediate Tasks 3 weeks Subjective satisfaction of short/intermediate vision while using laptop/tablet for somofilcon A multifocal lens (1= fell short of expectation, 2= met expectation, 3= exceed expectation)
