Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • They are of legal age (17 years) and capacity to volunteer.
  • They understand their rights as a research subject and are willing to sign a Statement of Informed Consent.
  • They are willing and able to follow the protocol.
  • They would be expected to attain at least 6/9 (20/30) in each eye with the study lenses.
  • They are able to wear contact lenses with a back vertex power of -1.00 to -6.00DS.
  • They have a maximum of 1.00D of refractive astigmatism (i.e. ≤ 1.00 DC).
  • They have successfully worn contact lenses within six months of starting the study.

Exclusion criteria

  • They have an ocular disorder which would normally contra-indicate contact lens wear.
  • They have a systemic disorder which would normally contra-indicate contact lens wear.
  • They are using any topical medication such as eye drops or ointment.
  • They are aphakic.
  • They have had corneal refractive surgery.
  • They have any corneal distortion resulting from previous hard or rigid lens wear or has keratoconus.
  • They are pregnant or lactating.
  • They have grade 2 or greater of any of the following ocular surface signs: corneal oedema, corneal vascularisation, corneal staining, tarsal conjunctival changes or any other abnormality which would normally contraindicate contact lens wear.
  • They have any infectious disease (e.g. hepatitis) or any immunosuppressive disease (e.g. HIV).
  • They have diabetes.
  • They have taken part in any other clinical trial or research, within two weeks prior to starting this study.

Primary outcomes

  1. Limbal Hyperemia

    Time frame: At 2 weeks and 4 weeks

    Measures the redness of the limbal region of the eye on a scale of 0 to 100 grade with 0=none and 100=severe. The analysis is the average grade over all time frames.

  2. Lens Comfort

    Time frame: At 3,7,10,13,17,21,24, and 27 days

    Rating of lens comfort by rating agreement to the following statement:

    "The lenses I am wearing are comfortable."

    Rating using the following scale:

    1=strongly agree, 2=agree, 3=neutral, 4=disagree, 5=strongly disagree. The rating is averaged over all time frames.

  3. Upper Lid Margin Staining

    Time frame: At 2 weeks and 4 weeks.

    Measures the trauma to tissue that lines the margin of the inside of the upper eyelid on a 0 to 3 scale, with 0=none to 3=severe. The analysis is the average grade over all time frames.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Tarsal Roughness

    Time frame: At 2 weeks and 4 weeks

    Measures the amount of roughness to the tissue of the inside upper and lower eyelid on a scale of 0 to 100 with 0=none and 100=severe. The analysis is the average grade over all time frames.

  2. Tarsal Hyperemia

    Time frame: At 2 weeks and 4 weeks.

    Measures the amount of redness to the tissue of the inside upper and lower eyelid using a 0 to 100 scale with 0=none and 100=severe.

  3. Corneal Staining

    Time frame: At 2 weeks and 4 weeks.

    A measure of corneal abrasion using a 0 to 100 scale with 0=none, 25=micropunctate, 50=macropunctate, 75=coalescence, 100=patch. The analysis is the average grade over all time frames.
