Clinical Trial Summary

This is a randomized, double-masked dispensing study where subjects will randomized into one of two lens sequences to wear each of two contact lens types for a 4-week period with each lens type.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

• The subject must read, understand, and sign the STATEMENT OF INFORMED CONSENT and receive a fully executed copy of the form.

• The subject must appear able and willing to adhere to the instructions set forth in this clinical protocol.

• The subject must be between 18 and 40 years of age.

• The subject's vertex corrected spherical equivalent distance refraction must be in the range of -0.50 Diopters (D) to -8.00 D in each eye.

• The subject's refractive cylinder must be no more than -1.00 D cylindrical correction in each eye after vertexing to the corneal plane.

• The subject must have best corrected visual acuity of 0.20 or better in each eye.

• The subject must be a current wearer of daily, spherical, soft contact lenses (no bifocal or multifocal contact lenses, no extended wear or monovision) for at least 5 days/week and at least 8 hours/day during the month prior to enrollment.

• The subject must be using digital devices (any combination of computers, tablets, smart phones etc.) for at least 8 hours over the course of a typical day.

• The subject should own a wearable pair of spectacles and wear them the day of the baseline visit.

• The subject must have normal eyes with no evidence of abnormality or disease that in the opinion of the investigator would contraindicate contact lens wear.

• The subject must meet normal eligibility conditions of binocular vision tests.

• The subject may not have any double vision at near with their habitual contact lens correction.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Currently pregnant or lactating (subjects who become pregnant during the study will be discontinued).

• Any ocular or systemic allergies or diseases that may interfere with contact lens wear (at the investigator's discretion).

• Any systemic disease, autoimmune disease, or use of medication, which may interfere with contact lens wear (at the investigator's discretion).

• Use of any medication that causes side effects similar to side effects experienced when using digital devices, such as a subject reporting headaches associated with birth control pills (at the investigator's discretion).

• Any infectious disease (e.g., hepatitis, tuberculosis) or a contagious immunosuppressive disease.

• Any active ocular infection.

• Entropion, ectropion, extrusions, chalazia, recurrent styes, glaucoma, history of recurrent corneal erosions, aphakia, or moderate or above corneal distortion.

• Any previous, or planned, ocular or interocular surgery (e.g., radial keratotomy, photorefractive keratectomy (PRK), laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK), etc.).

• Clinically significant (grade 3 or 4) corneal edema, corneal vascularization, corneal staining, or any other abnormalities of the cornea which would contraindicate contact lens wear.

• Clinically significant (grade 3 or 4) tarsal abnormalities or bulbar injection which might interfere with contact lens wear.

• Any known hypersensitivity or allergic reaction to the study products.

• Participation in any contact lens or lens care product clinical trial within 7 days prior to study enrollment.

• History of binocular vision abnormality or strabismus.

• Employee of investigational clinic (e.g., Investigator, Coordinator, Technician).

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Overall CLUE Comfort	Overall comfort was assessed using the Contact Lens User Experience™ (CLUE) questionnaire. CLUE is a validated patient-reported outcomes (PRO) questionnaire to assess patient experience attributes of soft contact lenses (comfort, vision, handling, and packaging) in a contact-lens wearing population in the US, ages 18-65. Derived CLUE scores using Item Response Theory (IRT) follow a normal distribution with a population average score of 60 (SD 20), where higher scores indicate a more favorable/positive response with a range of 0-120.	Up to 4-Week Follow-up
Secondary	Overall CLUE Handling	Overall Handling was assessed using the Contact Lens User Experience™ (CLUE) questionnaire. CLUE is a validated patient-reported outcomes (PRO) questionnaire to assess patient experience attributes of soft contact lenses (comfort, vision, handling, and packaging) in a contact-lens wearing population in the US, ages 18-65. Derived CLUE scores using Item Response Theory (IRT) follow a normal distribution with a population average score of 60 (SD 20), where higher scores indicate a more favorable/positive response with a range of 0-120.	Up to 4-Week Follow-up
Secondary	Time to Haze	Time to haze measure the maximum time a contact lens wearers can keep their eye open without their vision becoming hazy. It was a measure of how the drying of the contact lens surface with open eyes affects vision.	Up to 4-Week Follow-up
Secondary	Average Wear Time	Average lens wear time with the study lenses were recorded in hour at each follow-up visit.	Up to 4-Week Follow-up
Secondary	Average Comfortable Wear Time	Average comfortable lens wear time with the study lenses were recorded in hour at each follow-up visit.	Up to 4-Week Follow-up
Secondary	Difference in Total Device Use Time and Comfortable Wear Time During Device Use	Subjects reported the total duration of their digital device use and comfortable lens wear time during digital device use.	Up to 4-Week Follow-up
Secondary	Comfort at the End of the Day	Subjects graded the comfort level at the end of the day using 5- point scale (1=excellence, 2=very good, 3=good, 4=fair and 5=poor). The average end of day comfort grade was reported for each lens type.	Up to 4-Week Follow-up
