Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Antimicrobial Efficacy
Time Frame: 2 weeks, 3 months
Excellent = No bacterial infection suspected and no ocular pathogens detected and bacteria of normal flora <0-103 CFU/mL. Good = No bacterial infection suspected and no ocular pathogens detected and bacteria of normal flora <103-105 CFU/mL. Skeptical = Bacterial infection suspected and ocular pathogens detected and bacteria of normal flora ≥ 105 CFU/mL. No Efficacy = Bacterial infection definite and ocular pathogens detected and bacteria of normal flora ≥ 105 CFU/mL. Pathogens were H. aegyptius, H. influenzae, Moraxella spp., P. aeruginosa, S. pneumoniae, S. aureus, N. gonorrhoeae
2 weeks, 3 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Solution Related AE's and Lens Changes
Time Frame: 3 months, 6 months
Very Safe = No solution related AEs and no changes in lens properties related to the solution. Safe = No solution related AEs and slight change in lens properties related to the solution, but lens wear was continued. Skeptical = Solution related AEs were suspected and lens properties changed due to the solution and lens wear was discontinued. Not Safe = Solution related AEs were present and lens properties changed due to the solution and lens wear was discontinued.
3 months, 6 months
Solution Utlility
Time Frame: 3 months, 6 months
The Utility was determined based on the results of the efficacy and safety evaluations.
3 months, 6 months
