Can eye shape predict which contact lens stays put?
NCT ID NCT07795671
First seen Aug 31, 2026 · Last updated Sep 02, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This trial tests two different soft toric contact lenses, Acuvue Oasys for Astigmatism and Air Optix for Astigmatism, to see how much they rotate on the eye. Researchers will measure lens rotation in adults with astigmatism who have never worn contacts, using a special microscope after 30 minutes of wear. The study also checks whether eye measurements, like shape and refractive error, are linked to how much the lens moves. The goal is to understand which lens design stays more stable and whether eye characteristics can guide lens selection.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Two commercially available soft toric contact lenses: Acuvue Oasys for Astigmatism and Air Optix for Astigmatism
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could help eye care professionals choose the best lens design for each person, improving comfort and vision clarity.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study with only 40 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The lenses are already on the market, so the trial is about comparing performance, not proving safety.
