Pre-Lens Tear Film Performance of Silicone Hydrogel Daily Disposable Contact Lenses

June 6, 2013 updated by: Alcon Research

Randomized Cross-Over Evaluation of Silicone Hydrogel Daily Disposable Soft Contact Lenses

The purpose of this study was to compare the pre-lens tear film stability of DAILIES TOTAL1® silicone hydrogel daily disposable contact lenses with that of two other silicone hydrogel daily disposable contact lenses.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Pre-Lens Non-Invasive Tear Break-Up Time (PL-NITBUT)
Time Frame: Day 7, 16 hours after lens insertion
The pre-lens tear film is the layer of tears located on top of the contact lens (i.e., between the eye lid and the contact lens). The time required for a dry spot to appear on the corneal surface after blinking is referred to as the tear film break-up time. Circular images were projected onto the corneal surface using a CA-1000 topographer, and the tear film reflection was observed on a 30-inch flat panel monitor. PL-NITBUT was recorded at the first sign of image distortion. Three measurements were taken and averaged together. A higher number represents a longer tear film break up time.
Day 7, 16 hours after lens insertion
