NCT07690813

Brief Summary

This study presents a machine learning model that predicts cycloplegic refraction in adults with myopia using standard non-cycloplegic eye measurements, aiming to reduce the need for cycloplegic drops while still identifying patients who require them.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Accuracy of predicted cycloplegic spherical equivalent

    Accuracy of the machine learning model in predicting cycloplegic spherical equivalent in the validation dataset, evaluated by mean absolute error, root mean square error, and coefficient of determination, expressed for spherical equivalent in diopters.

    Day 0

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Diagnostic performance for identifying patients requiring cycloplegic refraction

    Day 0

  • Agreement between predicted and measured cycloplegic refraction

    Day 0

Study Arms (2)

Group with spherical equivalent change ≥0.50 diopters after cycloplegic refraction

Adult myopes with a non-cycloplegic versus cycloplegic spherical equivalent difference of ≥0.50 diopters, for whom cycloplegic refraction is clinically warranted, received routine cycloplegic refraction with tropicamide; no other intervention was given.

Diagnostic Test: Machine learning model for predicting cycloplegic refraction

Group with spherical equivalent change <0.50 diopters after cycloplegic refraction

Adult myopes with an absolute difference of less than 0.50 diopters between non-cycloplegic and cycloplegic spherical equivalent, for whom non-cycloplegic refraction is considered sufficient, received routine cycloplegic refraction with tropicamide; no additional intervention was applied.

Diagnostic Test: Machine learning model for predicting cycloplegic refraction

Interventions

The machine learning model was applied to each participant's non-cycloplegic parameters to predict cycloplegic spherical equivalent.

Age GroupsAdult (18-64)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Each subject underwent a comprehensive preoperative examination, including cycloplegic and non-cycloplegic refractions, Pentacam, etc.

You may qualify if:

  • Age 18 to 60 years, of either sex;
  • Spherical equivalent between -0.50 diopters and -10.00 diopters, with myopia in one or both eyes, and with cylinder of 4.00 diopters or less;
  • Best-corrected visual acuity of 20/25 or better in each eye;
  • Clear cornea, no keratoconus, corneal scarring, or other pathologies; clear lens;
  • Intraocular pressure of 21 mmHg or less, with no history of glaucoma;
  • No history of ocular surgery, especially corneal refractive surgery or cataract surgery;
  • Time interval between non-cycloplegic refraction and cycloplegic refraction of 7 days or less, with complete data.

You may not qualify if:

  • Incomplete clinical data to support the diagnosis;
  • Ocular conditions such as subclinical keratoconus, keratoconus, or moderate-to-severe corneal haze or leukoma;
  • Allergy or contraindication to cycloplegic agents;
  • Refusal to participate in the study.
