  3. No ocular topical medications (including comfort drops) from 24 hours prior to study visits or during the wear of any study lenses.
  4. They are regularly using anti-inflammatory or pain medications (i.e. medication routinely used more than twice per week).

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Lid Margin Staining (Part1: Dailies Aqua Comfort Plus)	Lid margin staining of the upper and lower eyelids was performed in the left eye (OS) only using lissamine green. The following attributes were graded subjectively for each eyelid: Horizontal length of staining (Grade 0: < 2mm, Grade 1: 2-4 mm, Grade 2: 5-9 mm, Grade 3: >9 mm), and Sagittal width of staining relative to width of wiper (Grade 0: <25%, Grade 1: 25-50 %, Grade 2: 51-75%, Grade 3: >75%). The Average staining grade for each eyelid was also calculated which is the average of the horizontal and sagittal grades. Higher Lid Margin Staining values indicate that more staining was observed.	14 Hours Follow-up at Visit 4
Non-invasive Tear Break-up Time (Part1: Dailies Aqua Comfort Plus)	NIBUT was measured in timed seconds using the Medmont topographer for the right eye (OD) only. NIBUT values are positive, where higher NIBUT times (seconds) indicate a more stable tear film.	14 Hours Follow-up at Visit 4
Tear Meniscus Height (Part1: Dailies Aqua Comfort Plus)	The lower tear meniscus in the right eye (OD) only was imaged and measured in mm using optical coherence tomography (OCT). Lower TMH values indicate reduced tear quantity.	14 Hours Follow-up at Visit-4
Tear Film Osmolarity (Part1: Dailies Aqua Comfort Plus)	Tear film osmolarity were collected and measured in (mOsms/L) in the right eye (OD) only using the Tearlab (Tearlab Corp.).Higher tear osmolarity values may be associated with ocular dryness. Participants were classified as symptomatic or asymptomatic based on their subjective questionnaire responses for the CLDEQ-8 questionnaire assessed after two weeks of lens wear (Visit 2). CLDEQ-8 is a validated patient-reported outcome measure assessing patient-experience of symptoms relating to contact lens dryness.	14 Hours Follow-up at Visit 4
Number of White Blood Cells Per Frame in Eyelid Margin (Part1: Dailies Aqua Comfort Plus)	Images, using Confocal Microscopy were taken in both eyes for both the upper and lower eyelid in the central lid area. These images were used to determine the mean density of inflammatory white blood cells. Higher white blood cell counts may be associated with an increased inflammatory response. The number of white blood cells is a count of the number of cells 'per frame'. A frame has a fixed area of 400 x 400 microns. The average number of White Blood Cells was reported for each group.	2-Week Follow-up (after 6 hours lens wear) at Visit 2
