Trial Outcomes & Findings for eSight Eyewear Quality of Life and Efficacy Study (NCT NCT02616900)

NCT ID: NCT02616900

Last Updated: 2019-04-05

Results Overview

The study seeks to quantify, after a period of usage of the device of three months, improvement in subjects' Quality of Life using the validated tool, "Veterans Affairs (VA) Low Vision (LV) Visual Functioning Questionnaire (VFQ) - 48 Questions" (VA LV VFQ-48). Quality of Life is measured in Logits. Individual scores ranged from -5 to +10 (a higher number is a better score). Overall improvement was 0.84 Logits.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and after three months of device use.

The study seeks to quantify, after a period of usage of the device of three months, improvement in visual acuity using standard optometric charts (e.g. "20/400 to 20/160", etc.). We measured LogMAR acuity on a standard ETDRS chart. Results show an average greater than seven-line improvement (-0.76 LogMAR).

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and after three months of device use.

The study seeks to quantify, after a period of usage of the device of three months, improvement in contrast performance using a standard optometric "Mars Contrast Chart". Outcome is measured in Log Units ranging from 0.04 to 1.92 in decrements of 0.04 log units, a higher score indicating better contrast performance. The scale of the Mars Contrast Chart is interpreted as follows: 0.0 - 0.5 Log Units: Profound Loss 0.5 - 1.0 Log Units: Severe Loss 1.0 - 1.5 Log Units: Moderate Loss 1.5 - 1.75 Log Units: Normal Vision (\>60yrs) \>1.75 Log Units: Normal Vision (\<60yrs)
