NCT02572544

Brief Summary

Purpose of this study is to compare the ocular functional changes including pupil size, visual acuity, depth of focus, accommodative amplitude, visual field, contrast sensitivity, and stereopsis induced by multiple and single pinhole glasses, in addition, to check reading speed and survey for ocular discomfort after using both pinhole glasses.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (10)

  • Distant visual acuity (logMAR)

    Distant visual acuity were measured using Snellen chart (Precision Vision, La Salle, IL, USA) at 4 m.

    Subjects performed this examination while wearing multiple and single pinhole glasses with one week apart in random order after baseline study.

  • Photopic pupil size (baseline, mm)

    Pupil size under photopic conditions (85 cd/m2) was measured using a WASCA Analyzer (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Oberkochen, Germany).

    Subjects performed this examination while wearing multiple and single pinhole glasses with one week apart in random order after baseline study.

  • Depth of focus

    Monocular DOF was checked with a 4-m Snellen chart under distance correction without cycloplegics.

    Subjects performed this examination while wearing multiple and single pinhole glasses with one week apart in random order after baseline study.

  • Accommodative amplitude (Diopter)

    Near point of accommodation (NPA) was measured using Donder's push-up method.

    Subjects performed this examination while wearing multiple and single pinhole glasses with one week apart in random order after baseline study.

  • Standard automated perimetry

    Visual field (VF) test was performed with a Humphrey Visual Field Analyzer (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Inc., Dublin, CA, USA) using the 30-2 Swedish interactive threshold algorithm.

    Subjects performed this examination while wearing multiple and single pinhole glasses with one week apart in random order after baseline study.

  • Contrast sensitivity

    Monocular contrast sensitivity test was performed using a CSV-1000E Contrast Testing Instrument (VectorVision, Dayton, OH, USA) at 2.5-m distance under standard brightness (85 cd/m2)

    Subjects performed this examination while wearing multiple and single pinhole glasses with one week apart in random order after baseline study.

  • Stereopsis (seconds of arc)

    Stereopsis was checked with the Randot Stereotest (Stereo Optical Co., Chicago, IL, USA).

    Subjects performed this examination while wearing multiple and single pinhole glasses with one week apart in random order after baseline study.

  • Reading speed (letters per second)

    Reading speed was evaluated using the famous Korean traditional fairy tale book. This Korean book was printed black-and-white with 10-font size. The time taken to read designated 10 pages including 3985 letters was recorded, and then reading speed was calculated as letters per second (LPS).

    Subjects performed this examination while wearing multiple and single pinhole glasses with one week apart in random order after baseline study.

  • Near visual acuity (logMAR)

    Near visual acuity using Logarithmic Visual Acuity Chart 2000 (Precision Vision, La Salle, IL, USA) at 40 cm.

    Subjects performed this examination while wearing multiple and single pinhole glasses with one week apart in random order after baseline study.

  • Pupil size with the both pinhole glasses (mm)

    Pupil size with the both pinhole glasses using the ruler attached to the lateral rim of the glasses.

    Subjects performed this examination while wearing multiple and single pinhole glasses with one week apart in random order after baseline study.

Eligibility Criteria

Age20 Years - 45 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • age between 20 and 45 years;
  • spherical equivalents (SE) within ± 6.0 diopters (D);
  • correctable distant and near visual acuity by glasses up to 20/20;
  • normal intraocular pressure with normal optic disc appearance;

  • corneal pathologic features;
  • glaucoma;
  • cataracts of grade II or greater by the Lens Opacities Classification System III (LOCS III);
  • vitreous and retinal abnormalities that might limit the accuracy of testing.
