Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Comfort on Insertion | As interpreted and recorded by the participant on a questionnaire as a single, retrospective evaluation of 4 weeks of wear. Comfort on insertion was graded on a 10-point scale, with 1 being poor and 10 being excellent. | 4 weeks | 
| Comfort During the Day | As interpreted and recorded by the participant on a questionnaire as a single, retrospective evaluation of 4 weeks of wear. Comfort during the day was graded on a 10-point scale, with 1 being poor and 10 being excellent. | 4 weeks | 
| Comfort at End of Day | As interpreted and recorded by the participant on a questionnaire as a single, retrospective evaluation of 4 weeks of wear. Comfort at end of day was graded on a 10-point scale, with 1 being poor and 10 being excellent. | 4 weeks | 
| Overall Comfort | As interpreted and recorded by the participant on a questionnaire as a single, retrospective evaluation of 4 weeks of wear. Overall comfort was graded on a 10-point scale, with 1 being poor and 10 being excellent. | 4 weeks | 
| Daytime Vision | As interpreted and recorded by the participant on a questionnaire as a single, retrospective evaluation of 4 weeks of wear. Daytime vision was graded on a 10-point scale, with 1 being poor and 10 being excellent. | 4 weeks | 
| Low Light Vision | As interpreted and recorded by the participant on a questionnaire as a single, retrospective evaluation of 4 weeks of wear. Low light vision was graded on a 10-point scale, with 1 being poor and 10 being excellent. | 4 weeks | 
| Handling on Insertion | As interpreted and recorded by the participant on a questionnaire as a single, retrospective evaluation of 4 weeks of wear. Handling on insertion was graded on a 10-point scale, with 1 being difficult and 10 being easy. | 4 weeks | 
| Handling at Removal | As interpreted and recorded by the participant on a questionnaire as a single, retrospective evaluation of 4 weeks of wear. Handling at removal was graded on a 10-point scale, with 1 being difficult and 10 being easy. | 4 weeks | 
| Delivers a Healthy, Natural Feeling | As interpreted and recorded by the participant on a questionnaire as a single, retrospective evaluation of 4 weeks of wear. Delivers a healthy, natural feeling was graded on a 10-point scale, with 1 being poor and 10 being excellent. | 4 weeks | 
| Lens Awareness | As interpreted and recorded by the participant on a questionnaire as a single, retrospective evaluation of 4 weeks of wear. Lens awareness was graded on a 10-point scale, with 1 being very aware and 10 being not aware. | 4 weeks | 
| Overall Satisfaction | As interpreted and recorded by the participant on a questionnaire as a single, retrospective evaluation of 4 weeks of wear. Overall satisfaction was graded on a 10-point scale, with 1 being poor and 10 being excellent. | 4 weeks | 
| Purchase Intent | As interpreted and recorded by the participant on a questionnaire as a single, retrospective evaluation of 4 weeks of wear. The participant was asked, How likely would you be to purchase these lenses? Purchase intent was graded on a 5-point Likert scale: Definitely would purchase, probably would purchase, may or may not purchase, probably would not purchase, definitely would not purchase. The Top-2-box response (definitely would purchase, probably would purchase) was calculated and reported as a percentage of all responses. | 4 weeks |
