Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • A person is eligible for inclusion in the study if he/she:
  • Is between 18 and 40 years of age (inclusive)
  • Has had a self-reported visual exam in the last two years
  • Is an adapted soft toric contact lens wearer
  • Has a contact lens spherical prescription between +6.00 to - 9.00 (inclusive)
  • Have no less than -0.75D of astigmatism and no more than -2.00 D in both eyes.
  • Can achieve best corrected spectacle distance visual acuity of 20/25 (0.10 logMAR) or better in each eye.
  • Can achieve a distance visual acuity of 20/30 (0.18 logMAR) or better in each eye with the study contact lenses.
  • Has clear corneas and no active ocular disease
  • Has read, understood and signed the information consent letter.
  • Patient contact lens refraction should fit within the available parameters of the study lenses.
  • Is willing to comply with the wear schedule (at least 5 days per week, > 8 hours/day assuming there are no contraindications for doing so).
  • Is willing to comply with the visit schedule

Exclusion Criteria

  • A person will be excluded from the study if he/she:
  • Has a CL prescription outside the range of the available parameters of the study lenses.
  • Has a spectacle cylinder less than -0.75D or more than -2.00 D of cylinder in either eye.
  • Has a history of not achieving comfortable CL wear (5 days per week; > 8 hours/day)
  • Has contact lens best corrected distance vision worse than 20/25 (0.10 logMAR) in either eye.
  • Presence of clinically significant (grade 2-4) anterior segment abnormalities
  • Presence of ocular or systemic disease or need of medications which might interfere with contact lens wear. Confidential EX-MKTG-66 Clinical Performance of Toric Hydrogel Contact Lenses Following One Week of Daily Wear 10
  • Slit lamp findings that would contraindicate contact lens wear such as:

  • Poor personal hygiene
  • Has a known history of corneal hypoesthesia (reduced corneal sensitivity)
  • Has aphakia, keratoconus or a highly irregular cornea.
  • Has Presbyopia or has dependence on spectacles for near work over the contact lenses.
