About this study

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

Read the detailed description

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

The effect of the study lenses and the treatment, 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).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing scleral lens in people with Dry Eye, run by CooperVision International Limited (CVIL) at 1 site in Canada.

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 12 inclusion and 11 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 17 Apr 2026. 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 Canada. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

overall ocular comfort (time frame: 4 weeks). 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 17 Apr 2026.
