Inclusion Criteria:

Subjects will only be eligible for the study if:

  • They are 18 years of age and above.
  • They understand their rights as a research subject and are willing and able to sign a Statement of Informed Consent.
  • They are willing and able to follow the protocol.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This purpose of this study is to compare the clinical performance and subjective acceptance of two different daily disposable limbal ring lenses.
Detailed Description
This is a subject-masked, dispensing study designed to evaluate the clinical performance and subjective acceptance when comparing two different daily disposable limbal ring lenses. Limbal ring lenses, which as well as correcting vision, have a colored ring which enhance the wearer's iris and are particularly popular in East Asian countries.
