Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults with presbyopia who meet specific refractive criteria (distance ≤ ±4.00 D, astigmatism ≤ 1.00 D), adequate distance-vision acuity, and stable ocular motility.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with higher astigmatism, prior cataract or intraocular lens surgery, progressive contact lens wear, significant anisometropia, or compromised ocular motility may not benefit from these lenses.

What this trial studies
This is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, crossover trial comparing two occupational progressive lenses designed for intermediate and near vision in presbyopic adults. Participants will undergo a series of optometric evaluations and visual field assessments while wearing each lens type, with a fixed head position during testing. The study uses plano distance power and a +2.00 D near addition to measure differences in the extent and depth of clear vision across multiple working distances. Outcomes focus on volumetric visual fields and how they vary between lens options under standardized conditions.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, one lens option may provide a larger or deeper clear visual field for tasks at intermediate and near distances, potentially improving functional vision for presbyopic patients.
How similar studies have gone: Previous work with progressive addition lenses has shown variable benefits; this study explores volumetric visual fields to provide deeper insight beyond standard acuity measurements.
