What this trial studies

Adults aged 18–65 will receive an eye exam and then perform simple visual tasks on digital devices while wearing different eyeglass configurations. Researchers will record body posture and eye-movement behavior during those tasks to compare younger and presbyopic participants and to compare different lens types. The protocol focuses on controlled device tasks in a clinic setting and uses objective measurements of head, neck and eye position. Data will be analyzed to identify systematic differences related to age and spectacle design.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Adults 18–65 with distance refractive error between -3D and +3D, astigmatism ≤1D, anisometropia ≤1.5D, minimum corrected visual acuity of 8/10, stable binocular vision, and for presbyopes an addition between 0.75D and 2.75D.

Not a fit: People with significant ocular disease, prior ocular surgery, binocular vision problems, neurological or vestibular disorders, vertebral/cervical troubles, or those outside the specified refractive ranges are unlikely to benefit from participation.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the findings could inform better eyeglass designs or guidance to reduce discomfort and improve comfort during screen use.

How similar studies have performed: Prior eye‑tracking and ergonomic studies have shown posture and gaze changes during screen use, but direct comparisons across multiple eyeglass designs and age groups remain relatively limited.
