What is being measured

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

  1. Mean Distance Visual Acuity (VA) With Study Lenses

    VA was assessed at a distance of 4 meters using a letter chart and was measured in logarithm minimum angle of resolution (logMAR). A logMAR value of 0 equates to 20/20 Snellen visual acuity (normal distance eyesight), with a lower logMAR value indicating better visual acuity.

    Measured: Week 1, each product

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?

Mean Distance Visual Acuity (VA) With Study Lenses (time frame: Week 1, each product). 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.
