  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • At Visit 1 (Screening Period), the age ranges from 45 to 75 years old, regardless of gender
  • At Visit 1 (Screening Period), the corrected distance visual acuity of either eye is ≥ 0.8 (National Standard Logarithmic Visual Acuity Scale,decimal visual acuity) in the clinical routine manifest refraction (distance vision).
  • At Visit 1 (Screening Period), the manifest refraction (distance vision under mesopic conditions) results are as follows: For any eye,-4.00D ≤ equivalent spherical lens power ≤ +2.00D, and the negative cylinder lens power is ≥-2.00D;
  • At least one eye meeting the following at both Visit 1 and Visit 2:
  • Under mesopic conditions, monocular corrected near visual acuity (MCNVA) ≤65 ETDRS letters (equivalent to decimal visual acuity 0.4) ;
  • Under mesopic conditions, monocular corrected near visual acuity with a multiple-pinhole occluder (MCNVA_P) improves by ≥15 ETDRS letters compared to monocular corrected near visual acuity without the occluder (MCNVA).

  • During Visit 1 (Screening Period) and Visit 2, both eyes must meet the following criteria:under mesopic conditions, binocular corrected near visual acuity (BCNVA) is ≤65 ETDRS letters (equivalent to decimal visual acuity 0.4);
  • Any eye is phakic or implanted with a monofocal intraocular lens (IOL);

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study of Presbyopia, run by Zhaoke (Guangzhou) Ophthalmology Pharmaceutical Ltd. at 1 site in China.

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 9 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Apr 2025. 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 China. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Peiqiu Gu (0577-88075582, EYE_ec@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Changes in MCNVA(monocular corrected near visual acuity) ETDRS letters and MCDVA (monocular corrected distance visual acuity) ETDRS letters from baseline in the study eyes after administration (time frame: 15minutes, 1hour, 2hour, 4hour15minutes, 6hour, and 8hour after administration). 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 29 Apr 2025.
