Clinical Trial: Studying the Relationship Between Contact Lens Packaging Solutions and Bacterial Binding to Surface Eye Cells
Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: Completed
Study Type: Interventional
Official Title: A Masked, Randomized, Prospective, Single Center Crossover Clinical Trial on the Relationship Between Chemically Preserved Contact Lens Packaging Solutions and Bacterial Binding to Corneal Epithelial
Brief Summary: The goal of this study is to investigate the overall theory that the use of chemically preserved solutions associated with contact lenses promotes an increase in bacterial infection.
Detailed Summary: The purpose of this study is to investigate the theory of bacterial binding to surface eye cells through the use of chemically preserved solutions.
