A Dispensing Comparison of a Test Daily 1 Day Lens Against a Control 1 Day Lens.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical performance of a silicone-hydrogel test contact lens compared to the commercially available silicone-hydrogel (control) contact lens when worn over one week for each lens type in a randomized, bilateral, cross-over, dispensing study on a daily disposable basis.
