Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of a multi-focal contact lens on symptomatic patients.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • To have signed an informed consent form (documented by the investigator in the Case Report Form [CRF]).
  • Be existing daily wear spherical single-vision soft CL wearers (no extended wear in the last 3 months, but silicone hydrogels in daily wear are allowed).
  • Between 35 and 47 years of age (inclusive).
  • Have a CL spherical distance requirement between -1.00D and -6.00D (-6.50D refractive) in both eyes.
  • Refractive astigmatism of 0.75D or less in both eyes.
  • Visual symptoms associated with near vision
  • Be correctable to a visual acuity of 6/9 (20/30) or better in each eye.
  • Have normal eyes with no evidence of abnormality or disease. For the purpose of this study a normal eye is defined as one having:
  • No amblyopia.
  • No evidence of lid abnormality or infection.
  • No conjunctival abnormality or infection.
  • No clinically significant slit lamp findings (i.e. stromal haze, staining, scarring, Vascularization, infiltrates or abnormal opacities).
  • No other active ocular disease.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Monovision user or multifocal CL wearer.
  • Regular user of reading spectacles (i.e. daily usage).
  • Requires concurrent ocular medication.
  • Clinically significant (Grade 3 or 4) corneal stromal haze, corneal Vascularization, tarsal abnormalities, bulbar hyperemia, limbal hyperemia, or any other abnormality of the cornea that would contraindicate CL wear.
  • Corneal staining Grade 3 in more than two regions.
  • Has had any anterior ocular surgery. Has had any other ocular surgery or injury within 8 weeks immediately prior to enrollment for this study.
  • Pre-existing ocular irritation that would preclude CL fitting.
  • Keratoconus or other corneal irregularity.
