Brief summary

The goal of this clinical study is to evaluate how adults aged 18 to 65 move their bodies and eyes when they use screens, with various eyeglasses. The main questions it aims to answer are : * How the behaviour between young and presbyopes is different while performing visual tasks on digital devices ? * How the behaviour while performing visual tasks changes according to different types of eyeglasses ? Participants will be asked to take part in an eye exam and do simple visual tasks on digital devices.

Interventions

DEVICEEye exam

Participants will get an eye exam

OTHERBody posture and eye movements behaviour of digital device users

Intervention model description

3 groups will follow different interventions. * Young adults (18-35) : will test single vision lenses * Presbyopes not used to wear progressive lenses (43-50) : will test single vision and progressive lenses * Presbyopes used to wear progressive lenses (51-65) : will test single vision and progressive lenses

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Quantification of Gaze Lowering using an eye-tracker deviceFrom enrollment to 3 months after enrollmentQuantitative Assessment of eye movements in degree with an eye-tracker during visual tasks

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Quantification of Head and body inclination with a motion capture systemFrom enrollment to 3 months after enrollmentQuantitative evaluation of postural behavior in degree with a motion capture system while performing visual tasks
Digital device usage distance using motion capture systemFrom enrollment to 3 months after enrollmentQuantitative assessment of digital devices' usage distance during visual tasks
Correlation between refraction profile and visual tasks' postural behaviorFrom enrollment to 3 months after enrollmentStatistical analysis of the association between participant's refraction characteristics and their visual tasks' behavioral patterns (Quantification of Gaze Lowering, Quantification of head and body inclination, Digital device usage distance)
Correlation between binocular vision profile and visual tasks' postural behaviorFrom enrollment to 3 months after enrollmentStatistical analysis of the association between participant's binocular vision characteristics and their visual tasks' behavioral patterns (Quantification of Gaze Lowering, Quantification of head and body inclination, Digital device usage distance)
Correlation between accommodation profile and visual tasks' postural behaviorFrom enrollment to 3 months after enrollmentStatistical analysis of the association between participant's accommodation characteristics and their visual tasks' behavioral patterns (Quantification of Gaze Lowering, Quantification of head and body inclination, Digital device usage distance)
Correlation between head-eye ratio profile and visual tasks' postural behaviorFrom enrollment to 3 months after enrollmentStatistical analysis of the association between the head-eye ratio (relative contribution of the head and the eye in a composite movement involving both of them) and the visual tasks' behavioral patterns (Quantification of Gaze Lowering, Quantification of head and body inclination, Digital device usage distance)
