Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to see if Stendra causes any changes in vision, eye pressure, pupil dilation, and color vision in healthy males.

Detailed Description

The objectives of this study are to assess the effect of Stendra on visual acuity, intraocular pressure, pupillometry, and color vision discrimination in healthy male subjects.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Pupil Dilation 1 Hour Post Dosing1 hour

Pupil dilation was measured using the Neuroptics Model VIP 200 pupillometer under standard lighting conditions.

Change From Baseline in Intraocular Pressure 1 Hour Post Dosing1 hour

Intraocular Pressure was measured using the Goldman applanation tonometry

Change From Baseline in Color Vision Discrimination 1 Hour Post Dosing1 hour

Color vision discrimination was performed using the Lanthony 40-Hue Test according to Farnsworth-Munsell 100-Hue Test. The total error score was derived by counting the number of caps misplaced.

Change From Baseline in Visual Acuity 1 Hour Post Dosing1 hour

Visual acuity was measured using the Logarithm of the Minimum Angle Resolution (LogMAR) chart. The LogMAR value of the best line read was noted and the number of letters read in the next row was multiplied by 0.02, then subtracted from the LogMAR value of the best line completely read.
