Evaluation of Miebo (Perfluorohexyloctane) Eyedrops in Habitual Contact Lens Wearers
Completed · Phase 4
Conditions studied: Dry Eye, Dry Eye, Evaporative, Dry Eye Disease, Evaporative Dry Eye, Evaporative Dry Eye Disease, Kerato Conjunctivitis Sicca
In brief
Miebo (Perfluorohexyloctane) is a novel, non-aqueous, single entity, preservative free, ophthalmic drop. This drop was recently approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of Meibomian Gland Disease (MGD). All published data on Miebo has been done in non-contact lens wearers. As contact lens dropout rates seem to be an ongoing problem for practitioners, we are performing this study utilizing this novel new drug with contact lens patients to determine if the drops assist comfort in typical soft contact lens wearing patients. If the study determines that Miebo assists in the overall comfort of contact lens patients this could be a possible way to help keep patients in their contact lenses longer.
