Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Test/ControlExperimentalEligible subjects who are habitual soft contact lens wearers will be randomized into the Test/Control sequence, to receive 1-2 drops on each eye (right eye followed by left eye) over soft spherical contact lenses, over two wear periods (test then control). A washout period of 90 minutes between eyedrop instillations will occur. The second eyedrop as per the randomization schedule will follow the same procedure as previously stated.

What is being measured

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

  1. Monocular logMAR Visual Acuity

    Monocular visual acuity was measured at distance (4meter) using a logMAR (Logarithm of Minimal Angle of Resolution) scale under high luminance high contrast lighting conditions. VA was assessed using ETDRS (Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study) charts. Letter-by-letter results calculated the visual acuity score for each chart read. LogMAR scores closer to zero, or below zero, indicate a better visual acuity. A logMAR visual performance score of 0.0 is equivalent to Snellen visual acuity of 20/20.

    Measured: 10 Minutes Post Eye Drop Administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Blink® Tears eye drops in a multidose bottle and Preservative-free investigational lubricating eye drops in a Novelia® eyedropper in people with Visual Acuity, run by Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc. at 3 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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Apr 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 28 May 2024). 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 logMAR Visual Acuity (time frame: 10 Minutes Post Eye Drop Administration). 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 2025.
