What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Overall Comfort
Time Frame: 4 weeks
Overall comfort was assessed and recorded by the participant on a questionnaire as a single, retrospective evaluation of 4 weeks of wear. Overall comfort was measured on a 10-point scale, with 1 being poor and 10 being excellent.
4 weeks
Vision Quality During the Day
Time Frame: 4 weeks
Vision quality during the day was assessed and recorded by the participant on a questionnaire as a single, retrospective evaluation of 4 weeks of wear. Vision quality during the day was measured on a 10-point scale, with 1 being poor and 10 being excellent.
4 weeks
Overall Handling
Time Frame: 4 weeks
Overall handling was assessed and recorded by the participant on a questionnaire as a single, retrospective evaluation of 4 weeks of wear. Overall handling was measured on a 10-point scale, with 1 being poor and 10 being excellent.
4 weeks
Dryness Throughout the Day
Time Frame: 4 weeks
Dryness throughout the day was assessed and recorded by the participant on a questionnaire as a single, retrospective evaluation of 4 weeks of wear. Dryness throughout the day was measured on a 10-point scale, with 1 being very dry and 10 being not dry.
4 weeks
Average Daily Wear Time
Time Frame: 4 weeks
Average daily wear time (hours) was reported by the participant as a single, retrospective evaluation of 4 weeks of wear.
4 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Lens Fit
Time Frame: 4 weeks
Lens fit was assessed by the investigator for each eye using a biomicroscope, which magnifies the appearance of the contact lens on the participant's eye. Lens fit was graded on a 5-point scale, with 2=unacceptable loose, 1=acceptable loose, 0=optimal, -1=acceptable tight, and -2=unacceptable tight.
4 weeks
Corrected Visual Acuity
Time Frame: 4 weeks
Corrected visual acuity was tested for each eye while the participant read distant charts in normal lighting. Corrected visual acuity was measured with a Snellen chart, which was converted into logMAR units (logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution). A 20/20 Snellen acuity equates to a logMAR acuity of 0.0 and is considered normal distance eyesight. Positive logMAR values indicate poorer vision, and negative values denote better visual acuity.
4 weeks
Overall Satisfaction
Time Frame: 4 weeks
Overall satisfaction was recorded on a 5-point Likert scale as a single, retrospective evaluation of 4 weeks of wear. The following scale was used: 2=very satisfied, 1=somewhat satisfied, 0=neither, -1=somewhat dissatisfied, and -2=very dissatisfied.
