The CA-800 Corneal Analyzer (Visia Imaging S.R.L., Italy) is a device that can measure small imperfections in the tear film when the eyes are open. The goal of this study is to see if the device can detect changes in the tear film after instillation of an eye drop or when contact lenses are worn.

One drop of Systane Complete Preservative Free will be instilled in each eye. Higher order aberrations assessed before and after instillation.
Daily disposable silicone hydrogel contact lenses indicated for myopia or hyperopia. Higher order aberrations assessed before and after instillation.

RECRUITINGChange in higher order aberrations with an eye drop
The change in root mean square (measured in microns) was assessed over 20 seconds. Data from the right eye was analyzed.
Time frame: Baseline (prior to instillation); immediately, 10, 20, 30, and 60 minutes post instillation of an eye drop
Change in higher order aberrations with senofilcon A
The change in root mean square (measured in microns) was assessed over 20 seconds. Data from the right eye was analyzed.
Time frame: Baseline (prior to insertion); immediately, 30 minutes, and 6 hours post insertion of a contact lens
Change in higher order aberrations with somofilcon A
The change in root mean square (measured in microns) was assessed over 20 seconds. Data from the right eye was analyzed.
Time frame: Baseline (prior to insertion); immediately, 30 minutes, and 6 hours post insertion of a contact lens
