The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pre lens tear film characteristics of DAILIES® Aqua Comfort Plus® Multifocal (DACP MF) and Toric (DACP Toric) compared to DAILIES® Aqua Comfort Plus® Sphere (DACP) daily disposable contact lenses over 12 hours of lens wear.
Two population groups (presbyopes and astigmats) will be enrolled in the study.

Percentage of Subjects With Wettability Grade of 2 or 3 After 12 Hours of Wear
A video was made to capture a visual demonstration of tear film characteristics in between blinks. The investigator graded contact lens surface wettability using a scale from 0 (fully wettable) to 3 (clearly visible distortions) at 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 seconds post-blink by region (central, superior, nasal, inferior, and temporal). Three independent measurements (3 blinks) were carried out. An average was taken over the 3 measurements, 5 regions, and 5 time points. One eye contributed to the analysis.
Time frame: Hour 12, each product
Percentage of Subjects With Wettability Grade of 2 or 3 After 8 Hours of Wear
A video was made to capture a visual demonstration of tear film characteristics in between blinks. The investigator graded contact lens surface wettability using a scale from 0 (fully wettable) to 3 (clearly visible distortions) at 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 seconds post-blink by region (central, superior, nasal, inferior, and temporal). Three independent measurements (3 blinks) were carried out. An average was taken over the 3 measurements, 5 regions, and 5 time points. One eye contributed to the analysis.
