Brief summary

Currently available treatments for presbyopia (old eye) include nonsurgical options (spectacles or contact lenses) and surgical options, however, each has its own risks and limitations. The purpose of this study is to evaluate how effective AGN-190584 is in treating presbyopia compared to vehicle (placebo). AGN-190584 is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of presbyopia. Participants are placed in 1 of 2 groups, called treatment arms. Each group receives a different treatment. There is a 1 in 2 chance that participants will be assigned to vehicle. Around 200 participants age 40-55 years with a diagnosis of presbyopia will be enrolled in the study in approximately 20 sites in the United States. Participants will receive AGN-190584 or vehicle in each eye twice daily for 14 days. There may be additional procedures for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a doctor's office. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, vision/eye tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.

Inclusion criteria

\- Objective and subjective evidence of presbyopia.

Exclusion criteria

* Corneal abnormalities (including keratoconus, corneal scar, Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy, guttata, or edema) in either eye that are likely to interfere with visual acuity. * Narrow iridocorneal angles (Shaffer grade \<=2 or lower on gonioscopy examination), history of angle-closure glaucoma, or previous iridotomy. * Diagnosis of any type of glaucoma or ocular hypertension. * History of cataract surgery, phakic intraocular lens surgery, corneal inlay surgery, radial keratotomy, or any intraocular surgery. * Use of temporary or permanent punctal plugs or history of punctal cautery in one or both eyes.

High contrast corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) was assessed binocularly (in each eye) using the provided visual acuity charts for distance vision in a room with mesopic lighting conditions (10 to 11 lux) measured at the target. Both near vision and distance vision were measured to evaluate the effect of AGN-190584. A participant who gained 3 lines or more in mesopic, high contrast, binocular DCNVA with no more than 5-letter loss in mesopic CDVA with the same refractive correction was regarded as a responder. A participant with missing data was regarded as a non-responder.

Primary

Percentage of Participants Gaining 3 Lines or More in Mesopic, High-Contrast, Binocular Distance-Corrected Near Visual Acuity (DCNVA) With No More Than 5-Letter Loss in Mesopic Corrected Distance Visual Acuity (CDVA) With the Same Refractive Correction

Visual acuity for near (40 centimeter \[cm\]) and distance (4 meter \[m\]) targets were measured in mesopic conditions using an eye chart. High contrast corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) was assessed binocularly (in each eye) using the provided visual acuity charts for distance vision in a room with mesopic lighting conditions (10 to 11 lux) measured at the target. Both near vision and distance vision were measured to evaluate the effect of AGN-190584. A participant who gained 3 lines or more in mesopic, high contrast, binocular DCNVA with no more than 5-letter loss in mesopic CDVA with the same refractive correction was regarded as a responder. A participant with missing data was regarded as a non-responder.
