What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. to obtain a predetermined number of valid ocular biometry measurements per participating site

    The test that will be performed are the eye dominance, uncorrected and corrected distance visual acuity (UDVA and CDVA), (accommodation, ocular refraction (automatic refraction), spectacle refraction, axial length (optical, ultrasound), anterior segment biometry (anterior chamber depth), corneal topography (keratometry), contrast sensitivity (Pelli-Robson/ Sine Wave Contrast Test (SWCT), pupil size (gauge)), intraocular pressure, the VFQ-25 questionnaire and some demographic data (age, gender, ethnicity, eye color, highest education).

    Measured: 19 months

  2. To obtain a predetermined number of valid visual function measurements per participating site

    The tests that will be performed are the eye dominance, accommodation, uncorrected and spectacle corrected visual acuity (UCVA and SCVA), ocular refraction (automatic refraction), spectacle refraction, axial length (optical, ultrasound), anterior segment biometry (anterior chamber depth), corneal topography (keratometry), contrast sensitivity (Pelli-Robson/ Sine Wave Contrast Test (SWCT)), intraocular pressure, the VFQ-25 questionnaire and some demographic data (age, gender, ethnicity, eye color, highest education).

    Measured: 19 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Provide a reference database for research purposes

    Protocol foresees in inclusion optional tests:straylight measurement (using Oculus C-Quant,pupillometry,distance-corrected intermediate and near visual acuity(DCIVA and DCNVA,crystalline lens thickness,aberrometry,ORA measurements (IOPcc,IOPG,CRF,CH parameters.These tests may be added by the individual sites depending of the availability of equipment.A number of secondary parameters can also be derived from primary parameters using calculations (e.g.crystalline lens power, estimated aniseikonia,etc) or by analysis of the raw data of computer based tests.

    Measured: 19 Months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Normal Subjects, Ametropia, run by European Vision Institute Clinical Research Network at 1 site in Spain.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jun 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

to obtain a predetermined number of valid ocular biometry measurements per participating site (time frame: 19 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01173614, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Jun 2016.
