- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Distance Visual Acuity (VA) (logMAR, OU) Day 7, each product VA was tested under photopic (well-lit) conditions using an Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) chart positioned 6 meters from the subject. VA was collected bilaterally (OU) and measured in logMAR (logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution), with 0.1 logMAR increment corresponding to 5 letters, or 1 line, on the ETDRS chart. A lower numeric value represents better visual acuity.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Overall Vision Day 7, each product Subjective rating of overall vision on a scale of 1 (Poor) to 10 (Excellent). Both eyes contributed to the analysis.
