Mean Time Post-blink to 15% Distortion of the Projected Rings After 12 Hours of Lens Wear
The participant blinked twice, then kept eye open. Circular images were projected onto tear film layer located on the surface of the contact lens. Measuring software automatically detected areas where the tear film destabilized after the blink. The time to 15% destabilization of the tear film was calculated. A longer time indicates a more stable tear film. The right eye was evaluated.
Time frame: Day 1, Hour 12, each period
Mean Speed of Tear Film Break-up at 15 Seconds Post-blink After 12 Hours of Lens Wear
The participant blinked twice, then kept eye open. Circular images were projected onto tear film layer located on the surface of the contact lens. Measuring software automatically detected areas where the tear film destabilized after the blink. The slope of the regression line (distorted areas vs. time) was calculated. A slower speed (higher number) indicates a more stable tear film. The right eye was evaluated.
Time frame: Hour 12
