Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Mean Distance Visual Acuity (VA) With Study Lenses

VA was assessed at a distance of 4 meters using a letter chart and was measured in logarithm minimum angle of resolution (logMAR). A logMAR value of 0 equates to 20/20 Snellen visual acuity (normal distance eyesight), with a lower logMAR value indicating better visual acuity.

Time frame: Week 1, each product
