Trial Outcomes & Findings for Correction of Farsightedness in Children Study (NCT NCT00472212)

NCT ID: NCT00472212

Last Updated: 2023-04-18

Results Overview

The Kaufman Test of Educational Achievement (K-TEA) was used to measure change in reading skill (reading comprehension). The K-TEA is a well-established, individually administered, standardized test for assessment of achievement in reading, with a mean standard score of 100 and standard deviation of 15. Higher values represent better performance.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 week outcome exam

Individually administered battery designed to measure cognitive processing abilities. CAS is based on PASS (Planning, Attention, Simultaneous, and Successive), a well-researched cognitive/neuropsychological theory. A higher score indicates a better outcome.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 week outcome exam

Accommodative response, Right eye. This is a measure the accuracy of focusing (accommodative accuracy or response) while the subject views a near target. Lower (positive) values represent better accuracy of focusing.
