Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Visual Acuity Test
a test to see the sharpness of vision using Snellen Chart which is read at a distance of 6 meters. Normal eye test results are stated in 6/6.
Visual Field Test
a test to assess the breadth of views of the lateral, medial, superior and inferior aspects using Humprey's perimetry.
Funduscopy
an examination to see and assess the abnormalities and conditions in the ocular fundus using an ophthalmoscope. This examination is carried out by an ophthalmologist.
Electrorectinography
an examination to provide a picture of objectivity, a quantitative measure of retinal function to monitor the function of stem cells and ganglion cells in the eye. This examination is carried out by a trained ophthalmologist.
