简要总结
This study seeks to address whether or not different types of daily disposable soft contact lenses may be a beneficial option for patients complaining of eye strain and visual discomfort while using digital devices.
详细描述
This was a prospective, single site, randomized, double-masked, crossover pilot study. Subjects were randomized to begin with either multifocal or single vision distance contact lenses. The lenses used in this study were the 1-Day Acuvue (AV) Moist spherical single-vision soft contact lenses (SSCL) in the 8.5 base curve and the 1-Day AV Moist Multifocal (MFSCL) in the low ADD (etafilcon A, 58% water content). The preferred viewing distance on digital devices for a similar age group to our study was 63 cm which would require a near ADD of +1.59D. A low addition (ADD) yielding up to +1.25D was selected to provide an intermediate near addition without compromising distance vision as much as would be expected with higher add powers. The multifocal lens utilizes an aspheric center-near design. Subjects wore the lenses on a daily wear, daily disposable schedule. Following one week (± 2 days) of lens wear, subjects were evaluated and the alternate lenses dispensed. Adverse events were collected and assessed at each study visit.

结局指标
主要结局
Subjective Symptom Improvement
时间窗: Baseline and after 1 week of wearing each lens.
The primary outcome measure was change in average score on a ten question Visual Comfort Survey using a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) from baseline to day 7 in multifocal contact lenses and single vision contact lenses. The Visual Analogue Scale ranges from 0-100 (100 being the worst symptoms) for each of the ten questions. The maximum total score is 1000, the minimum total score is 0 (no symptoms).
次要结局
- Convergence Insufficiency Symptom Survey (CISS)(1 week)
- Lens Preference(2 weeks)
- Contact Lens Dry Eye Questionnaire- 8 Survey (CLDEQ-8)(1 week)
- Near Phoria at 40cm in Multifocal Contact Lens vs Single Vision Contact Lens(1 week)
- Lag of Accommodation in Study Lenses(1 week)
