What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Monocular Visual Acuity on LogMAR Scale

    Distance (4 meter) high contrast standard resolution (ETDRS) acuity was measured twice for each eye. Visual acuity describes the acuteness or sharpness of vision; the ability to perceive small details. Visual acuity is a measure of spacial resolution of the visual processing system; it's tested by requiring the person being tested to identify characters (like letters and numbers)on a chart from a set distance. LogMAR charts are used to assess visual acuity for research studies. LogMAR means Minimum Angle of Resolution. This has lead to the assertion that research is done using a logarithmic progression in size of letters on a test chart gives the most accurate visual acuity measurement. The reason for this is, unlike other charts, LogMAR chart has equal gradation between the letters on the line and the space between the lines. And, there is a fixed number of letters per line.

    Measured: After 5 to 9 days of lens wear

  2. Binocular Visual Acuity on LogMAR Scale

    Distance (4 meter) high contrast standard resolution (ETDRS) acuity was measured twice binocularly. Distance (4 meter) high contrast standard resolution (ETDRS) acuity was measured twice for each eye. Visual acuity describes the acuteness or sharpness of vision; the ability to perceive small details. Visual acuity is a measure of spacial resolution of the visual processing system; it's tested by requiring the person being tested to identify characters (like letters and numbers)on a chart from a set distance.

    Measured: After 5 to 9 days of lens wear

  3. Subject Reported Overall Lens Comfort Using the Contact Lens User Evaluation (CLUE)TM Questionnaire

    The Contact Lens User Evaluation(CLUE)TM questionnaire is a validated patient-reported outcomes questionnaire to assess patient experience attributes of soft, disposable contact lenses (comfort, vision, handling, and packaging) in a contact-lens wearing population in the US, ages 18-65. Scores follow a normal distribution with a population average score of 60 (SD 20), where higher scores indicate a more favorable/positive response. 97% of the scores fall within 0 and 120 (mean +/-3*SD).

    Measured: After 5 to 9 days of lens wear

  4. Subject Reported Overall Quality of Vision Using the Contact Lens User Evaluation(CLUE)TM Questionnaire.

    The Contact Lens User Evaluation(CLUE)TM questionnaire is a validated patient-reported outcomes questionnaire to assess patient experience attributes of soft, disposable contact lenses (comfort, vision, handling, and packaging) in a contact-lens wearing population in the US, ages 18-65. Scores follow a normal distribution with a population average score of 60 (SD 20), where higher scores indicate a more favorable/positive response. 97% of the scores fall within 0 and 120 (mean +/-3*SD).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Etafilcon A toric contact lens and Nelfilcon A toric contact lens in people with Astigmatism, run by Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc. at 6 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Jun 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 7 Feb 2013). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Monocular Visual Acuity on LogMAR Scale (time frame: After 5 to 9 days of lens wear). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Jun 2018.
