12/01/2020 - "For balafilcon A and samfilcon A lenses, mean scores for pain were 6.22 ± 2.81 and 3.11 ± 2.90 on first postoperative day (p < 0.001) and 1.57 ± 1.65 and 0.68 ± 0.85 on third postoperative day (p = 0.001), respectively; mean scores for foreign body sensation were 6.11 ± 2.53 and 3.19 ± 2.72 on first postoperative day (p < 0.001) and 3.16 ± 1.92 and 1.35 ± 1.43 on third postoperative day (p < 0.001), also respectively; and mean scores for epiphora were 6.46 ± 2.64 and 5.46 ± 3.40 on first postoperative day (p = 0.007) and 1.68 ± 1.60 and 1.32 ± 1.31 on third postoperative day (p = 0.065), again respectively. "
03/01/2004 - "Patients who required therapeutic contact lens wear for various indications such as pain relief, corneal protection, persistent epithelial defects, corneal perforation and chemical burns were fitted with PureVision continuous wear contact lenses (balafilcon A, 36% water content). "

01/01/2022 - "Aim: In this study, brinzolamide (BRZ) was loaded in balafilcon A silicone hydrogel soft contact lens to enhance delivery in glaucoma therapy. "

03/01/2017 - "Mean CA values obtained when CLs were removed from blisters (baseline value) were lower for etafilcon A (49.6°±3.0°) and comfilcon A (48.0°±2.8°) and higher for senofilcon A (78.9°±2.5°), lotrafilcon B (82.6°±1.7°), and balafilcon A (91.5°±0.7°). "
10/01/2014 - "This was a randomized, interventional, double-masked, single-center crossover study assessing balafilcon A silicone hydrogel contact lenses, bilaterally, straight from the blister pack solution (control) and pre-soaked in the following lens care solutions: Regard(®) (containing sodium chlorite), ReNu(®) (containing a PHMB [polyhexamethylene biguanide] derivative), CyClean™ and MeniCare™ Soft (both containing PHMB). "
03/01/2019 - "Five SH lens materials: senofilcon A, comfilcon A, balafilcon A, lotrafilcon A, and lotrafilcon B were removed from the blister pack (n=4 for each lens type), incubated for 7 days at 37°C in an artificial tear solution containing C radiolabeled cholesterol. "
