Summary

This study tested three different eye drop formulas to improve near vision in people with presbyopia, the age-related difficulty seeing up close. 18 adults with presbyopia received each formula in a random order. The main goal was to see how many could read three more lines on an eye chart one hour after using the drops, without losing distance vision.
