The purpose of this investigation is to study the safety and tolerability of SENSIMED Triggerfish, a soft contact lens-based device intended to continuously record relative changes in intraocular pressure (IOP). The investigation enrols glaucoma patients and glaucoma suspects. All subjects receive two 24-hour recording sessions with the device in an ambulatory setting and at weekly interval. The level of discomfort in the study eye after 24 hours and side effects are the main endpoints of the investigation.

Ocular Discomfort
Ocular discomfort in the study eye is reported by patients on a 100-mm visual analog scale (left end 0 mm, no discomfort; right end 100 mm, very severe discomfort) as the distance from the left end to the patient's mark after wearing the device for 24 hours at two occasions separated by one week. Values for both sessions were averaged.
Time frame: After 24 hours of device wear
