Scleral Contact Lens Insertion Solution Study
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to determine the clinical ocular compatibility (feasibility of safety and efficacy) of a patented solution (US Patent 2,259,437, Stone) which contains multiple essential ions and has a pH and tonicity which more closely mimics human tears as compared to the subjects' current habitual scleral lens insertion solution.
Conditions: Irregular; Contour of Cornea.
Primary outcome: Change in corneal staining or corneal disruption as assessed with clinical biomicroscope; Comfort and vision quality as assessed by Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) questionnaire; Comfort as assessed by Current Symptoms Survey (CSS).
Enrollment: 30 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 30 participants or records.
