Clinical evaluation of the Closed-view autorefractor and Open-view autorefractor was performed to examine validity and repeatability compared with subjective refraction. Measurements of refractive error were performed on 126 eyes of 65 subjects (aged $26{\pm}7.5$ years) subjectively noncycloplegic. Intersession repeatability of the Closed-view and Open-view were also assessed on all 65 subjects together with Intersession repeatability on 7 to 14 days intervals. Spherical powers and spherical equivalent values of subjective refraction and autorefractions by Closed-view and Open-view were analyzed by paired T-test. The mean spherical powers of subjective refraction, Closed-view and Open-view were determined to be $-2.125{\pm}2.155D$, $-2.146{\pm}1.907D$, $-2.117{\pm}2.121D$, respectively. The mean spherical equivalent values of subjective refraction, Closed-view and Open-view were determined to be $-2.362{\pm}2.204D$, $-2.391{\pm}1.967D$, $-2.366{\pm}2.162D$, respectively. The results showed that the refractive errors as measured by the Closed-view and Open-view were found to be similar to the subjective refraction in all components.

Clinical evaluation by Astigmatic Components of autorefractors was performed to examine validity and accuracy compared with subjective refraction. The mean cylindrical powers of Astigmatic Components of Subjective Refraction, Closed-view and Open-view were found to be $-0.689{\pm}0.516D$, $-0.691{\pm}0.530D$, $-0.470{\pm}0.507D$, respectively. The Difference of cylindrical Components between Subjective Refraction and Closed, Open-view were found to be $0.002{\pm}0.191D$, $0.015{\pm}0.137D$, respectively. Approximately 85% of Closed-view and Open-view autorefractor measurements were within ${\pm}20^{\circ}$ range of the difference of cylindrical axis with subjective refraction. The mean $J_0$ Components of Astigmatic Components of subjective refraction, Closed-view and Open-view were found to be $-0.155{\pm}0.332D$, $-0.004{\pm}0.178D$, $-0.001{\pm}0.156D$, respectively. The mean $J_{45}$ Components of Astigmatic Components, Closed-view and Open-view were found to be $-0.023{\pm}0.227D$, $-0.026{\pm}0.172D$, $-0.014{\pm}0.182D$, respectively. Both of the Closed-view and Open-view refractor showed available accuracy in measuring astigmatic components.

In this study, the performance between subjective refraction and open-field/closed view autorefraction was estimated. We measured the refractive error of early adults aged 18 to 20 years who did not have eye disease. The differences between measurements obtained by subjective refraction and open-field autorefraction for SE, J0, and J45 were $-0.13{\pm}0.53D$ (p=0.17), $+0.33{\pm}0.68D$ (p=0.01), and $+0.13{\pm}0.68D$ (p=0.26), respectively, with only J0 differing significantly. The differences between the measurements of subjective refraction and closed-view autorefraction for SE, J0, and J45 were $-0.30{\pm}0.42D$ (p=0.00), $+0.30{\pm}0.71D$ (p=0.02), and $-0.02{\pm}0.63D$ (p=0.88), respectively, with only SE and J0 differing significantly. The coefficient of accuracy for SE, J0, and J45 components of open-field and closed-view autorefraction were 1.04, 1.33, and 1.34 and 0.83, 1.40, and 1.24, respectively. It is possible to predict the refractive error, which is necessary when deciding on subjective refraction, by measuring the objective refraction of open-field/closed view autorefractors.
