New contact lens aims to beat digital eye fatigue
NCT ID NCT07488208
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested two types of stenfilcon A contact lenses to see if one reduces eye strain from digital screens better than the other. Thirty adults who already wear contacts and have computer vision syndrome wore each lens design for five days. The lenses were compared using questionnaires and vision tests. The goal is to find a lens that makes screen time more comfortable.
