Evaluation of the Feasibility of Fitting of Apioc Contact Lenses in Adults

This clinical trial will document the feasibility of the Apioc lens design by assessing which
lens shape parameters yield successful on-eye-fit and movement of the Apioc contact lens
design and evaluate the subjectively-reported comfort of the Apioc contact lens design.

This is a one-site, non-dispensing clinical trial using the Apioc contact lens design. This
soft contact lens study will determine the feasibility of this design by determining which
parameters of the shape of the Apioc Contact Lens design will yield a successful fit across
subjects. We will also determine the percentage of subjects who can be successfully fitted
with the Apioc Contact Lens Design. Because the feasibility of the lens design may be
dependent upon age, a total of 50 subjects (10 subjects each across 5 decades of life) will
complete the study. The data will be collected in a single visit for most subjects. A few
subjects may be asked to return for a second visit if additional contact lens parameters need
to be ordered to achieve a successful fit. The key assessments for this study will be
demonstration of feasibility of fit, documentation of movement in all gazes, including
translation, and subjective reports of comfort. Subjects will only wear contact lenses while
in the office.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Thirty subjects will be at least 40 years of age and no more than 60 years of age. Ten
subjects will be at least 18 years of age and no more than 29 years of age. Ten
subjects will be at least 30 years of age and no more than 39 years of age.

2. The subject must have ≤ 1.50 D of corneal astigmatism.

3. The subject should have clear, healthy corneas.

4. The subject should have a normal, healthy conjunctiva in both eyes.

5. The subject should be free of active ocular disease. Refractive error and presbyopia
are permitted.

6. The subject must provide written informed consent.

7. The subject must appear willing and able to adhere to the instructions set forth in
this protocol.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. No irregular corneal astigmatism is permitted.

2. No pterygia or corneal scarring that would interfere with contact lens wear.

3. No pinguecula or other conjunctival thickness abnormalities are permitted that would
interfere with contact lens wear.

4. The subject should not be using any ocular pharmaceutical treatments, including
artificial tears in the two weeks prior to the examination.
