Reading glasses study for solar customers in western Kenya
Part of Brain & nervous system, Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This trial tests if giving reading glasses to people with age-related blurry near vision can help them work better and keep up with payments on their solar product. If you are 40 or older, have trouble reading small print, and already bought a solar item on payment plan, you may qualify.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study compares two types of glasses (single-vision vs. progressive lenses) to see which one helps people with aging-related reading difficulty (presbyopia) see better and feel better in daily life. You may qualify if you are 40–70 and have trouble reading up close but haven't used reading glasses recently.
This study tests a new device called Opti-K that helps people see better up close without needing reading glasses. It may be an option if you are over 40, have had cataract surgery or no significant cataracts, and rely on reading glasses for near tasks.
This trial tests whether giving the right glasses to children with myopia (near-sightedness) can improve their eyesight and help them attend school more regularly. Better vision may make it easier to see the board and participate in class.
This study looks at whether an intervention can improve near vision problems (presbyopia) in people who do detailed near work and have eye strain. Because it involves workplace productivity, you must meet specific work and vision requirements and be able to complete follow-up.
This study tests whether wearing reading glasses can slow or prevent nearsightedness from getting worse in children. It follows kids for up to five years to see how their vision changes over time.
This trial provides free glasses to middle school students with myopia in rural Liaoning Province to see if better vision helps them get into high school. It tests whether correcting vision can improve academic outcomes.
