ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying two types of daily disposable multifocal contact lenses to see how well they help people with presbyopia, a common condition that makes it harder to focus on close objects as we age. The main goal is to check how well participants can see while wearing these lenses. The study involves six visits to the clinic and compares the two lens types in a carefully controlled way.

To join the study, participants need to be between 40 and 70 years old and already use soft contact lenses regularly. They should either already wear contact lenses designed to help with presbyopia or have some symptoms of it. Participants must have fairly good vision with their current correction and meet certain eye measurements. People who are pregnant, have certain eye or health problems, or have had recent eye surgery won’t be eligible. During the study, participants will try both types of lenses and attend several visits to test their vision and comfort. This trial is not yet recruiting but aims to help improve contact lens options for people with presbyopia.

• • 7. The subject's distance spherical equivalent refraction must be in the range of +1.00 to +4.00 or -1.00 D to -4.00 D in each eye.
• • 8. The subject's refractive cylinder must be ≤0.75 D in each eye.
• • 9. The subject's ADD power must be in the range of +0.75 D to +2.50 D.
• • 10. The subject must have distance best corrected visual acuity of 20/20-3 or better in each eye.
• Potential subjects who meet any of the following criteria will be excluded from participating in the study:

• • 2. Have any active or ongoing ocular or systemic allergies that may interfere with contact lens wear.
• • 3. Have been diagnosed with diabetes.
• • 4. Have any active or ongoing systemic disease, autoimmune disease, or use of medication, which may interfere with contact lens wear. This includes, but not be limited to, hyperthyroidism, Sjögren's syndrome, xerophthalmia, acne rosacea, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, and immunosuppressive diseases or any infectious diseases (e.g. hepatitis, tuberculosis).
• • 5. Have any previous, or planned, ocular or intraocular surgery (e.g. radial keratotomy, PRK, LASIK, lid procedures, dacryocystorhinostomy, peripheral iridotomy/iridectomy, cataract surgery, retinal surgery, etc.).
• • 6. Have a history of amblyopia, strabismus or binocular vision abnormality.
• • 7. Use of any of the following medications within 1 week prior to enrollment: oral retinoid, oral tetracyclines, anticholinergics, oral phenothiazines, oral/inhaled corticosteroids. See section 9.1 for further examples.
• • 8. Be currently using any ocular medications with the exception of rewetting drops.
• • 9. Have a history of herpetic keratitis.
• • 10. Have a history of irregular cornea.
• • 11. Have a history of pathological dry eye.
• • 12. Have participated in any contact lens or lens care product clinical trial within 7 days prior to study enrollment.
• • 13. Be an employee (e.g., Investigator, Coordinator, Technician) or immediate family member of an employee (including partner, child, parent, grandparent, grandchild, sibling of the employee or their spouse) of the clinical site.
• • 14. Have any known hypersensitivity or allergic reaction to non-preserved rewetting drop solutions or sodium fluorescein.
• • 15. Have clinically significant (grade 3 or higher on the FDA grading scale) slit lamp findings (e.g., corneal edema, neovascularization or staining, tarsal abnormalities or bulbar injection) or other corneal or ocular disease or abnormalities that contraindicate contact lens wear or may otherwise compromise study endpoints (including entropion, ectropion, chalazia, recurrent styes, glaucoma, history of recurrent corneal erosions, aphakia, moderate or above corneal distortion, herpetic keratitis).
• • 16. Have any current ocular infection or inflammation.
