Design outcomes

| Intervention preference between spectacles versus contact lenses will be measured by asking subjects to provide their overall preferred intervention and the reasons for their choice using a 5-point Likert scale at the 12-week timepoint. In addition, where a participant selects the neutral option, a follow-up question will be asked to “force” them to decide. Reasons for their choice will also be collected. | — |
