In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Of the 140 million contact lens (CL) wearers worldwide, most wear soft contact lenses. Despite major improvements in contact lens care, nearly 20% of wearers stop using lenses, with contact lens discomfort (CLD) being the main reason. This study aims to determine whether VEVYE, a water-free 0.1% cyclosporine ophthalmic solution indicated for the treatment of DED, can improve contact lens comfort in people with dry eye disease.
