Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Agreement and Reproducibility Clinical Study
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Visual acuity is the relative ability of the eye to resolve detail that is usually expressed as the reciprocal of the minimum angular separation in minutes of two lines just resolvable as separate and that forms in the average human eye an angle of one minute.
Visibly Inc. has developed a method for determining a patient's visual acuity electronically via a web-based software system that can be self-administered wherever convenient. This method provides an efficient alternative for people to have immediate access to visual acuity measurements.

Detailed Description
The Visibly Digital Acuity Product (VDAP) is a web-based, self-guided software application intended for use by adults, ages 22 to 40, at home, to evaluate visual acuity with or without correction. The standalone software application allows the user to interface with the software via a web browser on two internet-enabled devices:
-
A computer screen (the Display) which displays optotypes
-
A touchscreen mobile device (the Remote) which operates as a remote control and interface for the user to respond to prompts related to the optotypes appearing on the Display while standing 10 feet away
The software allows users to view and respond to displayed optotypes and uses the responses to categorize a user's visual acuity into one of two buckets:
-
20/25 or better
-
Worse than 20/25

Arms and Interventions

---|---|
Experimental: Visibly Digital Acuity Product
|
Device: Visibly Digital Acuity Product
The order of testing (two VDAP home environments and ETDRS) will be randomly assigned for each subject as one of four sequences:
V1, E, V2
E, V1, V2
V2, E, V1
E, V2, V1
Where E denotes the ETDRS assessment, V1 denotes the VDAP assessment in home environment 1, and V2 denotes the VDAP assessment in home environment 2.
The randomization will be blocked in groups of 4 subjects to ensure balance for the VA testing sequences.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Effectiveness [Up to 3 hours]
The proportion of study eyes with VDAP VA of 20/25 or better 20/25 or better [Positive Predictive Value (PPV)]
- Reproducibility [Up to 3 hours]
The proportion of study eyes which receive the same VA classification (20/25 or Better vs. Worse than 20/25) for the two VDAP tests
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Effectiveness [Up to 3 hours]
The proportion of subjects with matching VDAP and ETDRS VA classifications (20/25 or Better vs. Worse than 20/25) for both eyes (study eye and non-study eye)
- Reproducibility [Up to 3 hours]
The proportion of subjects with matching VDAP VA classifications (20/25 or Better vs. Worse than 20/25) for the two VDAP tests for both eyes (study eye and non-study eye)
