Eligibility Criteria

  • 1. Eligible subjects must be 18 years of age or older
  • 2. Eligible subjects must be willing and able to provide an English language written Informed Consent Form
  • 3. Be a current soft contact lens wearer for at least 2-18 hours a day 4-7 days a week but experiencing contact lens discomfort that limits the number of hours of comfortable contact lens wear.
  • 4. Have worn the same commercially available soft contact lens (material, base curve, diameter) for the previous 90 days
  • 5. Have new contact lens to wear starting the first day after iLux treatment
  • 6. Have an OSDI score greater than ≥ 12
  • 7. Have a CLDEQ8 score ≥ 12
  • 8. Have a minimum meibomian gland expression score ≤ 12 (using MGD scoring system: apply pressure with korb expressor to 15 glands of lower lid (5 nasal, 5 central, 5 temporal): each gland will be scored from 0 to 3 (0 = no secretion, 1 = inspissated, 2 = cloudy, 3 = clear liquid), sum of score from each gland with equal total score, total score will range from 0-45.
  • 9. Be able and willing to follow instructions and participate in all trial assessments and visits
  • 10. Eligible subjects must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19
  • 1. Have any clinically significant slit-lamp findings at Visit 1 that in the opinion of the investigator may interfere with trial parameters
  • 2. Have abnormal lid anatomy eg. entropion, ectropion or active lid lesion eg. hordeolum, chalazion that may interfere with administering iLux treatment
  • 3. Had Lipiflow, iLux, Tear Care or manual meibomian gland expression in the last 30 days
  • 4. Be a woman who is pregnant, nursing, or planning a pregnancy
  • 5. Had ocular surgery within the last 90 days
  • 6. Have used topical cyclosporine, lifitegrast, topical or facial steroids, serum tears, or oral doxycycline or tetracycline within the last 30 days before Visit 1
  • 7. Had Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment within last 30 days
  • 8. Have active ocular infection or inflammation
  • 9. Be a current wearer of extended wear contact lenses
