Trial Outcomes & Findings for Ocular Comfort and the "Aging" Lens (ERBIUM) (NCT NCT01198600)

NCT ID: NCT01198600

Last Updated: 2012-08-29

Results Overview

Ocular comfort was rated bilaterally by the participant after wearing the same pair of lenses for 1 day. Ocular comfort was recorded on a continuum and converted to a 100-point scale where 1=EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE ("I CANNOT tolerate the comfort of my eyes! I am in pain!")and 100=VERY COMFORTABLE \& FRESH ("Wow! My eyes feel incredible! I love this feeling.")

Ocular comfort was rated bilaterally by the participant after wearing the same pair of lenses for 1 day. Ocular comfort was recorded on a continuum and converted to a 100-point scale where 1=EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE ("I CANNOT tolerate the comfort of my eyes! I am in pain!")and 100=VERY COMFORTABLE \& FRESH ("Wow! My eyes feel incredible! I love this feeling.")

Contact lenses worn for 43 days, with initial dispense on Day 0 and subsequent dispenses on Days 1 and 15 during Phase 3. "Survivors" were participants who reported no or very little reduction in subjective comfort between Day 1 and Day 27 of Phase 2.
Strugglers: Lotrafilcon B/Replacement/Replacement
n=16 Participants
Contact lenses worn for 43 days during Phase 3, with initial dispense on Day 0 and subsequent dispenses on Days 1 and 15. "Strugglers" were participants who reported a reduction in subjective comfort of at least 15 points on a 100-point scale between Day 1 and Day 27 of Phase 2.
