Brief Summary
Modification(s)  

This is a Prospective Study, which is validating a Portable Autorefractor (InstaRef R20) comparing against Subjective refraction (gold standard),Open field AR, Plusoptix, Quciksee, Standard tabletop autorefractor Topcon ARK 800 and Cycloplegic refraction. This device uses a Shack Hartmann aberrometer technology, which is used to find a Refractive error,and has a distinct advantage of not only being affordable and portable but can also be used as a standalone device.
