Scientific titleDo blue-blocking lenses block blue colour from our lives? A randomised controlled study measuring colour vision using the gold standard colour vision test (an anomaloscope) in patients with blue filtering intraocular lenses (tinted yellow)
Study objectivesTo measure colour vision in patients with a blue light filtering lens implant in one eye and a non-tinted implant in the other eye (and compare this group with a control group with bilateral non-tinted implants) and to determine whether blue light filtering lenses limit colour vision in any way.
Ethics approval(s)Not provided at time of registration
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedEye Diseases: Visual sense
InterventionBlue light filtering lens implant in one eye vs non-tinted implant in the other eye. A paired t-test will be used to analyse the results.
