Summary

The purpose of this study was to compare three CE-marked daily disposable contact lenses for tear film stability as measured by pre-lens non-invasive keratograph break up time (PL NIK-BUT). Secondarily, contact lens surface wettability was assessed.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Sign Informed Consent.
  • Adapted soft contact lens wearer.
  • Willing to wear contact lenses up to 12 hours and attend all study visits.
  • Vision correctable to 0.1 (logMAR) or better in each eye at distance with pre-study lenses at Visit 1.
  • Contact lens prescription within the power range specified in the protocol.
  • Other protocol-defined inclusion criteria may apply.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Any ocular infection, inflammation, abnormality, or active disease that would contraindicate contact lens wear.
  • Any use of systemic or ocular medications that would contraindicate contact lens wear.
  • Any ocular finding observed during the Visit 1 examination that would contraindicate contact lens wear.
  • Monocular (only 1 eye with functional vision) or fit with only 1 lens.
  • History of herpetic keratitis, ocular surgery, or irregular cornea.
  • Known pregnancy.
  • Unstable tear film with a NIK-BUT value below 13 seconds in either eye without lenses.
  • Participation in any clinical study within 30 days of Visit 1.
  • Other protocol-defined exclusion criteria may apply.
