ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying whether a special “comfort reading mode” can help reduce dry eyes and tiredness in the eyes, which often happen after reading for a long time. The study looks at how different background colors and text colors on screens affect eye comfort and dryness, aiming to find ways to make reading easier and more comfortable for the eyes.

Adults who have good vision with mild or no nearsightedness, no serious eye diseases, and no current dry eye symptoms may be eligible to join. Participants will need to complete eye tests and agree to take part voluntarily. The study is currently recruiting people, and it includes both men and women who meet the criteria. If you join, you can expect to have your eyes checked and to try reading with different screen settings to see how your eyes respond. This trial is important because it may help develop better screen settings to prevent eye strain and dryness for people who spend a lot of time reading or using digital devices.
