Mean Ex-vivo Total Lipid Uptake (Total of Surface and Bulk Uptake) Per Lens
Contact lens was removed aseptically from the eye. Total lipid (fatty deposits) uptake, defined as total amount of lipids (surface and bulk) absorbed/adsorbed and extracted, was measured in micrograms. A lower value indicates better results. Only one lens from each subject contributed to the analysis.
Time frame: Day 30 after 10 hours of wear, each product
