Official title
Prospective, Single Arm Clinical Trial for the Treatment of Dry Eyes Signs and Symptoms in Patients With Limited Tolerability of Contact Lens Wear
Overview
This research study is to see if using Lacrifill is safe, easy to use, and helpful for people who wear contact lenses but can't wear them comfortably for long. Specifically, the study aims to determine whether regular use of Lacrifill over a 2-3 month period can help people wear their contacts longer without discomfort and reduce signs and symptoms of dry eye.
