- The subject must appear able and willing and able to the adhere to the instructions set forth in this clinical protocol.
- The subject's subjective refraction must result in a vertex corrected spherical contact lens prescription in the range of -1.00D to -4.00D in each eye.
- The subject's refractive astigamatism must be less than or equal to -1.00D in both eyes.
- The subjet must have best corrected visual acuity of 20/30 (6/9 or +0.20 logMAR) or better in each eye.
- The subject must require a visual correction in both eyes (no monofit or monovision allowed).
- The subject must have normal eyes with no evidence of abnormality or disease. For the purposes of this study a normal eye is defined as one having:
- No amblyopia

- +1 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Any ocular or systemic allergies or diseases that may interfere with contact lens wear.
- Any systemic diseases, autoimmune disease, or use of medication, which may interfere with contact lens wear.
- Clinically significant (Grade 3 or 4) corneal edeam, corneal vascularization, corneal staining, or any other abnormalities of the cornea which would contraindicate contact lens wear.
- Any ocular infection.
- Any corneal distortion resulting from previous hard or rigid permeable contact lens wear.
- Pregnancy or lactation (subjects who become pregnant during the study will be discontinued).
- No extended wear in the last 3 months.
- Diabetes.
- Infectious diseases (e.g. hepatitis, tuberculosis) or immunosuppressive disease (e.g. HIV).
- Has had refractive surgery.
- Employee of VRF with direct involvement in the study or a family member of the clinic.
