  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Ametropic or irregular cornea subjects who need to wear spectacle lens or contact lens in their daily life.
  • Is of age at least 20 years old and no older than 65 years old capacity to volunteer.
  • Has read and signed the Informed Consent Form or waiver. (4) Has myopia or hyperopia -20.00D~+20.00D, astigmatism -0.25~-4.00D, or presbyopia +1.00D~+3.50D.
  • Irregular cornea subjects include keratoconus, high astigmatism (>-4.00D) or post-refractive surgery patients.
  • No active ocular disease, infection or any disorder of eyelids and conjunctiva.
  • Has reasonable expectation of improvement in visual acuity with the test lenses.
  • Is willing and able to follow subject instructions and meet the protocol -specified visit schedule. (If subjects missed any visit, they must be discontinued from the study.) (9) Agrees to wear the test lenses at a daily wear basis. (10) Willing to adapt wearing GP contact lens.

Who cannot join

  • The subject is ineligible for entry into the study if the subject
  • Has any systemic disease affecting ocular health.
  • Is using any systemic or topical medications that will, in the Investigator's opinion. Affect ocular physiology or lens performance within one (1) week before entering this study.
  • Has an active ocular disease or has ever used systemic steroid or any other medicine that may affect significant on vision or healing.
  • Has any Grade 2 or greater finding listed in the Quantification of Slit Lamp Observations Form. Subjects with corneal infiltrates, however, of ANY GRADE, are not eligible.
  • Has any "Present" finding listed in the Quantification of Slit Lamp Observations that, in the Investigators' judgment, interferes with contact lens wear.
Show all 15Show fewer
  • Has any scar or neovascularization within the central 4mm of the cornea. Subjects with minor peripheral corneal scarring that, in the Investigator's judgment, does not interfere with contact lens wear are eligible for this study.
  • Severe dry eye (Schirmer Test<5mm/5min)

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • HI-BRITE Large Diameter Rigid Gas Permeable Contact LensDevice

    Approximately At least one hundred and forty (140) subjects (280 eyes) will be enrolled in this study at approximately two (2) clinical sites in Taiwan. All subjects will be fitted for and dispensed study lenses by each Investigator.

What is being measured

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

  1. The success rate of the vision with correction

    • Ametropic group: Subjects wear their lens for at least 6 hours/day and 5 days/ week after visit 9, Distance Lens VA is not less than 20/25 and 90% subjects' VA decreased less than 2 lines with Snellen's chart at the last visit.
    • Irregular Cornea Group: Subjects wear their lens for at least 6 hours/day and 5 days/ week after visit 9, Distance Lens VA is not less than 20/40 and 80% subjects' VA decreased less than 2 lines with Snellen's chart at the last visit.

    Measured: Wearing the contact lens for 6 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The effectiveness of each visit

    • Ametropic group: To assess each subject for the lens satisfied / problem and assess each time of the vision with correction; the ratio of ametropic correcting vision of 20/25 subjects.
    • Irregular Cornea Group: To assess each subject for the lens satisfied / problem and assess each time of the vision with correction; the ratio of the irregular cornea corrected visual acuity of 20/40 subjects.

    Measured: wearing the contact lens for 6 months

  2. The rate of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events to assess the safety of each visit

    To assess the rate of adverse reactions, the proportion of corneal ulcers, the proportion of continuous stroma edema, significant proportion of corneal staining of luciferase, the proportion of corneal infections, the proportion of persistent inflammation of the eyelids, and the proportion of other eye discomfort.

    Measured: wearing the contact lens for 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing HI-BRITE Large Diameter Rigid Gas Permeable Contact Lens in people with Refractive Errors, run by Taipei Medical University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 7 inclusion and 15 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Apr 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Taiwan. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

The success rate of the vision with correction (time frame: Wearing the contact lens for 6 months). 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 27 Apr 2017.
