This is a pilot evaluation to assess the feasibility of using novel imaging process to characterize lens edge and limbal epithelial thickness profile; lens movement with gaze and blink; and conjunctival microvasculature including fractal analysis of microvascular perfusion maps and blood flow velocity.
This is a pilot evaluation to assess the feasibility of using ultra-high resolution optical coherence tomography (OCT) to image and characterize lens edge and limbal epithelial thickness profile; lens movement with gaze and blink; and conjunctival microvasculature including fractal analysis of microvascular perfusion maps and blood flow velocity.

Assessment of Bulbar Conjunctival Blood Flow Velocity
Bulbar conjunctival microvascular responses among different types of contact lenses after a period of lens wear will be observed and evaluated for clinical relevance findings.
Time frame: 4 contact lenses will be tested over a period of 21 days.
