*Measured at 16 hours. N=48.
** Based on in vitro measurements of unworn lenses.
†Based on in vitro studies on delefilcon A sphere lenses wherein wettability was measured using the iDDrop System (p<0.001). All lenses were tested in an identical manner, soaked in a PBS (phosphate-buffered saline solution) for 16 hours +/- 2 hours (p<0.001).
††Based on surface modulus measured with AFM nanoindentation studies with delefilcon A material (DAILIES TOTAL1® sphere lenses); compared to ACUVUE^ OASYS 1-DAY, ACUVUE^ OASYS MAX 1-DAY, 1-DAY ACUVUE^ MOIST, clariti^ 1day and MyDay^ sphere contact lenses; p<0.01.
‡ n=92; pd0.0001.
‡‡ Based on 4-point Likert scale; strongly agree, slightly agree, slightly disagree and strongly disagree.
§ Based on a post-hoc analysis; data collected 15 minutes after insertion.
§§ Based on subject selection (or rating or agreement) to statement ”The lenses felt comfortable- even when looking at my smart phone or computer screen for an extended period of time” as measured at 16 hours on day 7 for PRECISION7® and day 14 for ACUVUE^ OASYS 2-week lenses.
¶There is no demonstrated clinical benefit to reduction in blue-violet light at wavelengths below 450 nm. BVL testing done on lehfilcon A sphere lenses.
¶¶UV absorbing contact lenses are NOT substitutes for protective UV absorbing eyewear, such as UV absorbing goggles or sunglasses because they do not completely cover the eye and surrounding area. The patient should continue to use UV absorbing eyewear as directed.
# In vitro bacterial stress testing of unworn sphere lenses.
## Based on bacterial counts on five different strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MCC 3478, 3480, 3481, 7142 and ATCC 10145) (p<0.0001 for all).
‖ Based on surface modulus measured with AFM nanoindentation (worn lenses were worn on-eye for a full wearing schedule: 14 days for ACUVUE OASYS^, 30 days for Biofinity^, ACUVUE VITA^, Bausch+Lomb ULTRA^); p<0.05.
‖‖ Based on subject selection (or rating or agreement) to statement “The lenses felt comfortable- even when looking at my smart phone or computer screen for an extended period of time” as measured at 16 hours on day 7 for PRECISION7® and day 14 for ACUVUE^ OASYS 2-week lenses.
