Abstract
Recent innovations in research and development have brought two new high Dk soft contact lens materials to the market. The purpose of this study was to report the performance of one of these materials, lotrafilcon A, among a large and diverse number of patients and routine practices. Five hundred and forty seven patients were fitted with study lenses by 62 investigators in six countries and followed for 3–6 months of up to 30 nights extended wear. Clinical results showed good visual acuity, lens surfaces, biomicroscopy findings, and lens fit throughout the study. Patients rated the lens highly and were satisfied with the lens. Practitioners may expect good results among their patients who are appropriate candidates for this lens.
