Summary

This Phase 3 trial tested LNZ101 eye drops in 229 people aged 45-75 with presbyopia, a condition that makes it hard to see up close. The drops combine aceclidine and brimonidine to temporarily improve near vision. The main goal was to see if participants could read three lines better on an eye chart without losing distance vision. The study is complete, offering hope for a non-surgical option.
