Mean Absolute Primary Gaze Orientation at 3 Minutes for the Lenses Inserted at 90 Degrees
Primary gaze orientation is measured in degrees. Measurement Description: Primary gaze is when the patient is looking straight ahead. Orientation refers to how much the contact lens is rotated on the eye. Primary gaze orientation of the contact lens is measured in degrees at the slit-lamp (microscope) using a reticle (protractor). Lens orientation was measured in primary gaze in 5-degree increments. Negative values indicate the contact lens was rotated in the temporal direction. Positive values indicate the contact lens was rotated in the nasal direction. The greater the value (positive or negative) the more the lens is rotated. The absolute value was calculated for all the measurements. The absolute values were used to calculate the mean primary gaze orientation after 3 minutes of contact lens wear. Criteria: P-values ≤0.05 will be considered statistically significant.
Time frame: 3 minutes
