Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- They are aged between 18 and 40 years.
- They understand their rights as a research subject and are willing and able to sign a Statement of Informed Consent.
- They are willing and able to follow the protocol.
- They are a 'neophyte' (i.e. someone who has not worn contact lenses previously, with the exception for the purposes of a trial fitting).
- They have a contact lens spherical prescription between +8.00D and -10.00D (inclusive) based on the ocular refraction.
- They have a cylindrical correction of -0.75DC or less in each eye based on the ocular refraction.
- They own and habitually wear single vision spectacles.
- They are willing to be fitted with contact lenses and understand they may be randomised to either group.
- They are willing to wear the contact lenses (if relevant) or spectacles for at least 8 hours per day, 5 days per week.
- They are able to wear the supplied surgical masks for the majority of time that they need to wear PFM and will wear the PFM for at least one hour a day for at least four days per week.
- They can attain at least 0.20 logMAR distance high contrast visual acuity in each eye with the study lenses (if relevant) or spectacles.
- They agree to not participate in other clinical research while enrolled on this study.
You may not qualify if:
- 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 have had cataract surgery.
- They have had corneal refractive surgery.
- They have any corneal distortion resulting from previous hard or rigid lens wear or have keratoconus.
- They are pregnant or breastfeeding.
- They have any ocular abnormality which would, in the opinion of the investigator, normally contraindicate contact lens wear.
- They have any infectious disease which would, in the opinion of the investigator, contraindicate contact lens wear or pose a risk to study personnel; or they have any immunosuppressive disease (e.g. HIV), or a history of anaphylaxis or severe allergic reaction.
- They require significant ocular/face personal protective equipment beyond a personal face mask.
- They have taken part in any other contact lens or care solution clinical trial or research, within two weeks prior to starting this study.
- They have spectacles which are not within ±0.50D of their refractive error.
