Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The rate of income change of textile workers

    The rate of income change over baseline.

    4 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • The quality of vision function

    4 weeks

  • Percentage of glasses wear in intervention group, as well as the purchase and use of glasses in control group.

    4 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Presbyopic Glasses/ Intervention Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Immediate provision of a free pair of spherical presbyopic glasses to correct the worker's vision for optimal working distance as measured before intervention.

Device: Presbyopic Glasses/ Intervention Group

Control Group

NO INTERVENTION

Will be deferred to receive spectacles as above, after the 4 weeks evaluation period.

Interventions

Immediate provision of a free pair of spherical presbyopic glasses to correct the worker's vision for optimal picking distance, astigmatism is corrected.

  • Aged \>= 40 years;
  • Quantifiable near visual task workers;
  • Habitual near visual acuity of \>= 0.8M (\<=6/12) at 40cm in both eyes, correctable to \<=0.5M (\>=6/7.5);

  • Eye disease detected on baseline eye exam
  • Current ownership of near correction capable of improving near visual acuity to \<= 0.8M (\>= 6/12) in either eye
  • Unlikely to complete follow-up due to unsatisfactory work performance, plans to move out of the area, etc.
