Corneal Staining Associated With Daily Disposable Beauty Contact Lenses

2. Fluency in English and ability to read and understand written English.
3. The subject must be able and willing to adhere to the instructions set forth in this clinical protocol.
4. The subject must be between 18 and 35 years of age.
5. The subject must be an adapted (minimum of 4 week history of daily wear prior to the baseline study visit) soft contact lens wearer in both eyes.
6. The subject must be East or Southeast Asia descent, e.g. ethnic Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Malay, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Filipino, etc. by self-report.
7. The subject must come in with a current (no more than 12 month old) spectacle or contact lens prescription as indicated. (NB: Emmetropic subjects who wear contact lenses for enhancement purposes only will also require a current contact lens prescription).

7. Have any grade 3.0 or greater slit lamp findings (e.g., edema, corneal neovascularization, corneal staining, tarsal abnormalities, conjunctival injection) on the Efron classification scale or any other ocular abnormality that may contraindicate contact lens wear.
8. Have any known hypersensitivity or allergic reaction to contact lenses (as assessed by ocular history).
9. Have any ocular infection.
10. Have any corneal distortion resulting from previous hard or rigid gas permeable contact lens wear.
11. Have participated in any contact lens or lens care product clinical trial within 14 days prior to study enrollment.
12. Have any infectious disease (e.g., hepatitis, tuberculosis) or a contagious immunosuppressive disease (e.g. HIV), by self-report.
13. Currently wear their contact lenes on an extended wear basis.
14. Is an employee of the investigational clinic (e.g., Investigator, Coordinator, Technician).

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Corneal Staining	Corneal staining was evaluated in 5 corneal regions (Central, Inferior, Nasal, Temporal and Superior) using Sodium Fluorescein strips. The corneal Staining was graded using the scale Grade 0: No Staining, Grade 1: Trace(Minimal superficial staining or stippling), Grade 2: Mild (Regional or diffuse punctate staining), Grade 3:Moderate(Significant dense coalesced staining, corneal abrasion or foreign body tracks.), Grade 4 Severe(Severe abrasions greater than 2 mm in diameter, ulcerations, epithelial loss, or full thickness abrasion.). The total was calculated by using the sum across all regions by time point. The range for the total grade for each time point would be 0-20. The total average grade for each lens and time point was evaluated as an average change from baseline level of corneal staining.	20 minutes and 7 hours post lens fitting
