Treatment and study plan

Investigational Toric Lens

Device

Bausch & Lomb investigational toric contact lens worn on a daily wear basis for 2 weeks.

PureVision Toric Lens

Device

Currently marked Bausch & Lomb PureVision Toric Lens worn on a daily wear basis for 2 weeks.

Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Eyes With Absolute Lens Rotation ≤ 10 Degrees.

    Time frame: 2 weeks

  2. Visual Acuity

    Time frame: 2 weeks

    Visual acuity was assessed by distance high contrast logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR).

Secondary outcomes

  1. Symptoms and Complaints

    Time frame: 2 weeks

    Symptoms/complaints were assessed on a scale from 0 to 100, with 0 denoting unfavorable symptoms/complaints. Symptoms/complaints were recorded at each post-dispensing visit based on the subject's experience with the study lens worn prior to the visit. The symptoms/complaints parameters were: Burning/stinging upon insertion; Comfort upon insertion, Overall comfort, and Comfort at the end of the day; Ease of handling/insertion, and Ease of handling/removal; Dryness; Itchiness; Redness; Vision; Lens cleanliness; and Overall impression.

  2. Percentage of Eyes With > Grade 2 Slit Lamp Findings

    Time frame: 2 weeks

    Graded slit lamp findings for each eye, including epithelial edema, epithelial microcysts, corneal staining, limbal and bulbar injections, upper lid tarsal conjunctival abnormalities, corneal neovascularization, and corneal infiltrates were graded for severity on a scale from 0 (No Finding) to 4 (Severe Finding). The outcome measure is any finding > grade 2, across abnormalities.
