About this study

This clinical trial investigates the differences between three different progressive addition lens designs. It is a non-invasive double-masked randomized clinical investigation. For this study, 80 participants will be recruited.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the preference, adaptability, and visual performance of three progressive lens designs. The difference in these lens designs is a variation of zone sizes for intermediate and near vision. The clinical trial helps manufacturers and eye care practitioners to give detailed suggestions to patients. Study participants will be experienced progressive addition lens wearers, which will be recruited by advertisements, by email, and with direct person-to-person solicitation. The study will be conducted at the Eye Care Institute at the Patient Care Center Western University of Health Sciences, Pomona, CA, 91766. For each participant, the study is completed in around two months and requires three separate visits.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluate the Adaptation to Progressive Lens Designs.

    Evaluate the adaptation to progressive lens designs through a "Satisfaction questionnaire" after 1 week of use of each of the 3 progressive addition lenses.

    Scale titles: Visual Quality Scale: A 5-point scale from a minimum value of 1 to a maximum score of 5. Higher scores mean better outcomes.

    Measured: Entire study duration (approx. 4 weeks)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Evaluate the Immediate Preference Among Progressive Lens Designs.

    Evaluate the immediate preference for progressive lens designs through a "Satisfaction questionnaire" directly after receiving the 3 progressive addition lenses.

    Scale titles: Visual Quality Scale: A 5-point scale from a minimum value of 1 to a maximum score of 5. Higher scores mean better outcomes.

    Measured: Directly after receiving the lenses (approx. 15 minutes)

  2. Evaluate the Preference of Progressive Lens Designs.

    Evaluate the final preference of progressive lens designs after wearing each of the 3 PALs for one week.

    Scale title: Preference of Progressive Addition Lenses Scale: "Pair 1", "Pair 2, "Pair 3"

    Measured: Entire study duration (approx. 4 weeks)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Progressive Additional Lenses (PAL), pre calibrated and made of polymeric material with anti-reflection coating in people with Presbyopia, run by Western University of Health Sciences at 1 site 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 8 inclusion and 9 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 Aug 2024. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 15 Aug 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Evaluate the Adaptation to Progressive Lens Designs. (time frame: Entire study duration (approx. 4 weeks)). 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 15 Aug 2024.
