Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Best-corrected visual acuity changes

Best-corrected visual acuity changes are measured by visual acuity charts (Teller/Lea symbol/ETDRS chart) every 1 year at scheduled time

Time frame
Baseline and through study completion, an average of 1 year
2

Intraocular pressure changes

Intraocular pressures are measured by NCT machine

Time frame
Baseline and through study completion, an average of 1 year
3

Refractive power changes

Refractive power are measured at baseline and every visit at least every 1 year

Time frame
Baseline and through study completion, an average of 1 year
4

Ocular biological measurements changes

Ocular biological measurements including axial length, corneal keratometry, anterior chamber angle/depth, corneal endothelial cell number and appearance

Time frame
Baseline and through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary outcomes

1

Other factors changes

Sleep, depression, cognitive function are measured by questionnaires. Self-Rating Scale of Sleep: minimum value-1 point, maximum value-50, and higher scores mean worse outcome. Hamilton Depression Scale: \<7 points-normal, and higher scores mean worse outcome. Loewenstein Cognitive Assessment: for every question, minimum 1 point, and maximum 4 points. Higher scores mean worse outcomes.
