Primary outcomes

  1. Average Corneal Staining Area

    Time frame: After 2 hours of wear

    Percentage corneal staining was assessed by the investigator for each of five regions of the cornea, i.e., four quadrants plus central. The investigator instilled fluorescein dye and examined the cornea with a slit lamp, i.e., biomicroscope and a yellow filter. Percentage corneal staining area was recorded in increments of ten, and the percentages of the five regions were averaged together.

  2. Total Corneal Staining Type

    Time frame: After 2 hours of wear

    Total corneal staining type was assessed by the investigator for each of 5 regions of the cornea, i.e., four quadrants plus central. The investigator instilled fluorescein dye and examined the cornea with a slit lamp, i.e., biomicroscope and a yellow filter. Corneal staining type was recorded on a 5-point scale for each region: 0-none; 1-micropunctate; 2-macropunctate; 3-coalesced macropunctate; 4-patch (>/= 1mm). The five regions were summed.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Ocular Comfort

    Time frame: After 2 hours of wear

    Ocular comfort was recorded by the participant on a questionnaire using a 5-point scale. Participant completed the sentence, "Right now my eyes feel..." with one of the following responses: 1-very comfortable; 2-comfortable; 3-neither comfortable nor uncomfortable; 4-uncomfortable; 5-very uncomfortable.

  2. Ocular Redness

    Time frame: After two hours of wear

    Ocular redness was recorded by the participant on a questionnaire using a 5-point scale. Participant completed the sentence, "Right now my eyes look..." with one of the following responses: 1-very white; 2-white; 3-neither white nor red; 4-red; 5-very red.
