Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Surface Asymmetry Index (SAI) Assessed With Corneal Topography

    Surface asymmetry index (SAI) is an index that indicates an average value of the corneal power differences between the points spatially located at 180° from 128 equidistant meridians. A radially symmetrical surface has a value of zero, and this value increases as the degree of asymmetry is greater. Higher values are worse, but there is no set maximum value and no unit of measure.

    Change from baseline SAI at 5-10 minutes after using the TrueTear device.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Surface Regularity Index (SRI) Assessed With Corneal Topography

    Change from baseline SRI at 5-10 minutes after using the TrueTear device.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Scheduled to undergo routine imaging for cataract surgery, refractive lens exchange or laser refractive surgery

You may not qualify if:

  • A cardiac pacemaker, implanted or wearable defibrillator, or other implanted metallic or electronic device (e.g. cochlear implant) in the head or neck
  • Chronic or frequent nosebleeds, a bleeding disorder (e.g. hemophilia), or another condition that can lead to increased bleeding
  • A known hypersensitivity (allergy) to the hydrogel material that comes into contact with the inside of the nose during use of the TrueTearTM device
  • Pregnancy
  • Presence of any ocular disease or condition which in the investigator's opinion would confound the study results
