Summary

The purpose of this study is to measure the relative "barrier" function of the top layer of the cornea (called the epithelium), or the degree to which the cornea can prevent the penetration of the colored dye sodium fluorescein into the eye. This is a clinical investigation of the effect on corneal barrier function following wear of two contact lens materials and two contact lens care systems, approved for marketing in the US by the Food and Drug Administration. These contact lenses will be worn for two hours, following soak in one of two marketed contact lens disinfecting solutions. Approximately 25 young, adapted contact lens wearers will participate.
