About this study

Official title: Quantative Analysis of Functional Changes by the Pinhole Glasses

Pinhole glasses which is using pinhole effect may induce a functional change on the eyes, including Distance and near visual acuity(DVA, NVA), Pupil size, DOF, Accomodative amplitude, CS, Visual field(VF), Stereopsis.

Conditions
Vision, Ocular
Being tested

Pinhole glassesExperimentalAll subjects perform ophthalmic examinations before and after the pinhole glasses (Trayner Pinhole Glasses, Trayner Glasses, U.K.)
Receives: Device: Phinhole glasses

What is being measured

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

  1. Distance and near visual acuity(DVA, NVA)

    Check distance(4m) and near(40cm) visual acuity using Snellen chart, Visual Acuity chart 2000, respectively.

    At 1 week, cheked with wearing the pinhole glasses (Trayner Pinhole Glasses, Trayner Glasses, U.K.)

    Measured: Change from baseline at 1 week

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Pupil size

    Check the pupil size using WASCA Analyzer(Carl Zeiss Meditec, Germany)

    Measured: Change from baseline at 1 week

  2. Depth of focus

    Check with 4m Snellen chart.

    At 1 week, cheked with wearing the pinhole glasses (Trayner Pinhole Glasses, Trayner Glasses, U.K.)

    Measured: Change from baseline at 1 week

  3. Accomodation

    check by Donder's push-up method. The subject was instructed to view the target letter (20/20 reduced Snellen number), which initially was positioned at approximately 40 cm. The target then was moved progressively closer to the patient's eye at approximately 5 cm per second until the subject noticed the target starting to blur.

    At 1 week, cheked with wearing the pinhole glasses (Trayner Pinhole Glasses, Trayner Glasses, U.K.)

    Measured: Change from baseline at 1 week

  4. Visual field

    Humphrey Visual Field Analyzer (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Inc., Dublin, CA, USA) using a 30-2 Swedish Interactive Threshold Algorithm

    At 1 week, cheked with wearing the pinhole glasses (Trayner Pinhole Glasses, Trayner Glasses, U.K.)

    Measured: Change from baseline at 1 week

  5. Contrast sensitivity

    CSV-1000E Contrast Testing Instrument (VectorVision, Dayton, OH, USA) at 2.5m distance under the standard brightness (85 cd/m2)

    At 1 week, cheked with wearing the pinhole glasses (Trayner Pinhole Glasses, Trayner Glasses, U.K.)

    Measured: Change from baseline at 1 week

  6. Stereopsis

    Randot Stereotest (Stereo Optical Co, Chicago, Illinois, USA)

    At 1 week, cheked with wearing the pinhole glasses (Trayner Pinhole Glasses, Trayner Glasses, U.K.)

    Measured: Change from baseline at 1 week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Phinhole glasses in people with Vision, Ocular, run by Chung-Ang University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Apr 2014. 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 South Korea. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Distance and near visual acuity(DVA, NVA) (time frame: Change from baseline at 1 week). 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 NCT02111356, 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 11 Apr 2014.
