GLASSESOFF SCIENTISTS TO PRESENT NEW SCIENTIFIC DATA AT THE 2013 American Academy of Ophthalmology conference

 

– Recent Study Demonstrates Long-Term Effect Of The GlassesOff's Technology On Near Vision Sharpness –

 

New York, NY Nov 18, 2013 GlassesOff Inc. (OTCBB: GLSO) today announced that the company’s Chief Scientific Officer will present new data from its recent study at the 2013 Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Ophthalmology. The results of the study demonstrate that the previously shown benefits of GlassesOff's proprietary technology in improving near vision sharpness, by improving the image processing function in the brain, are persistent over time and have a long-term effect despite the expected age-related decline of near vision.

 

The presentation will include results obtained from 59 subjects with different levels of natural deterioration of near vision sharpness in either early or advanced stages, and who completed the basic GlassesOff program of 2 to 4 months, and then continued with an ongoing maintenance protocol that required only few sessions per month. The persistence of the GlassesOff program gains was retested after a period of up to 6.2 years and at least 1 year, and 2.5 years on average. The results were compared to the initial near vision sharpness state before the use of the GlassesOff program, as well as to the predicted rates of near vision deterioration with age.

 

"Data from the study suggests that not only is there enough capability in the adult brain to overcome and/or delay the undesired effects of aging on reading abilities, but that these benefits are persistent over the long-term,” said Nimrod Madar, CEO of GlassesOff. "We believe that these results reinforce the lasting value that users can expect to gain from our innovative applications.”

 

The company’s CSO will present the data at 10:15 AM local time on November 18, 2013, at the Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Ophthalmology in New Orleans LA, USA.
