About this study

Official title: A Prospective Clinical Study to Evaluate the Effectiveness of Digital Refraction

Prospective, comparative, randomized, non-masked clinical study to compare the a digital refraction with LogMAR VA testing utilizing trial lenses, to standard manual refraction using a Phoropter, and LogMAR VA testing, in accuracy of visual acuity measurement.

Read the detailed description

A digital refraction tool is a device meant to measure visual acuity and to subjectively measure refractive value for a patient's eye for the conditions of myopia and astigmatism. It is intended for adults aged 22 to 55 years that have no prior correction with up to 3.00 diopters (D) of myopia and up to 2.00 D of astigmatism, or those with prior correction up to 10.00 D of myopia and require an over-refraction of no more than 2.75 D.

LogMAR (ETDRS) chart to measure visual acuity.

The manual manifest refraction is performed by an eyecare specialist using a phoropter.

The LogMAR Visual Acuity chart is used to measure visual acuity. The manual refraction will be used in this study for obtaining the refractive error of each eye.

What is being measured

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

  1. A digital refraction will be compared to standard manual refraction methods (using a phoropter) to the correlation of the two methods.

    The difference between testing methods (Manual Refraction with a phoropter versus a digital refraction test) will be analyzed by mean, standard deviation, and 95% confidence interval overall and by the levels of refractive correction (sphere, cylinder, MRSE) and for visual acuity using LogMAR format.

    Measured: After the Day 1 Visits

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Digital refraction and Manual Refraction in people with Myopia and Astigmatism, run by Visibly at 3 sites in United States.

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 5 inclusion and 12 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 26 Oct 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in United States. 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?

A digital refraction will be compared to standard manual refraction methods (using a phoropter) to the correlation of the two methods. (time frame: After the Day 1 Visits). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 26 Oct 2018.
