Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: UNKNOWN

Brief Summary

This study is being conducted to determine if scleral lenses coated with Hydra-PED improve comfort and dryness.

Detailed Description

The objective of the study is to determine if scleral lenses with and scleral lenses without Hydra-PEG coating provide positive improvement in ocular comfort and dryness scores.

The effect of the study lenses and the coating, will be compared in a group of symptomatic soft lens wearers, and also in a group of symptomatic non contact lens wearers.

The primary outcome variable for this study is "overall ocular comfort" reported at the screening visit for the habitual vision correction, and at the 4-week follow-up visits for each of the two study lenses. using a 0-10 scale (0.5 steps).
