Visual Performance
Low contrast visual acuity was measured for each participant while wearing each of the two lenses
Time frame: Through completion of study visit, an average of 2.5 hours
Spherical Equivalent Refractive Error On-axis
Refraction was measured after cycloplegia with two drops of 1% tropicamide hydrochloride. Spherical equivalent refractive error was then measured 3 times with an aberrometer and averaged.
Time frame: Through completion of study visit, an average of 2.5 hours
Spherical Equivalent Refractive Error at 30 Degrees Temporal Retina
Cycloplegic spherical equivalent refractive error was measured 3 times with an aberrometer and averaged.
Time frame: Through completion of study visit, an average of 2.5 hours
Spherical Equivalent Refractive Error at 20 Degrees Temporal Retina
Cycloplegic spherical equivalent refractive error was measured 3 times with an aberrometer and averaged.
Time frame: Through completion of study visit, an average of 2.5 hours
Spherical Equivalent Refractive Error at 20 Degrees Nasal Retina
Cycloplegic spherical equivalent refractive error was measured 3 times with an aberrometer and averaged.
Time frame: Through completion of study visit, an average of 2.5 hours
