Filter by:A gamification product was developed to guide children with amblyopia to develop rehabilitation training habits by combining cognitive evaluation theory and occlusion therapy. A randomized controlled trial was conducted to examine the ease of use, acceptability and treatment compliance of the game.
Clinical vision measurements usually involve printed charts with an eye care professional interpreting patient responses to generate a score. Those scores determine the need for or outcome of treatment. Detecting change can be improved with strict procedures/scoring, lending itself to computerisation. This in turn allows integration with electronic medical records. Many eye tests could be computerised in this way. At Guys and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, the investigators have developed and validated a computerised test of distance visual acuity, called COMPlog which is now in widespread use. The investigators now want to increase the range of tests available. There is also a need to longitudinally monitor for adverse change. Such monitoring must be developed to keep false positive and false negative change detection to a minimum. The aims of this two year linked program are to: Part A) validate an extended range of computerised vision measurement tests against their gold standard hard copy printed equivalents. Some of these tests are designed for use in children and all are meant to quantify both normal and impaired vision. Patients of all ages and visual function will therefore be recruited from St Thomas' Hospital. The specific tests we aim to validate are logMAR Letter Near Acuity, Word Near Acuity, Letter Contrast Sensitivity, Auckland Optotypes Picture Acuity, Low Contrast Letter Acuity, Stereoacuity and Vanishing Optotypes. Patients will undergo test-retest measurements with up to two of these. Part B) Iteratively develop an application for use in home monitoring of subjects at risk of treatable vision loss due to age related macular degeneration. All computerised tests in parts A and B will be performed on prototype software. Eye patients will be recruited as subjects. Patients recruited to part A will undergo tests on one day for up to an hour, subjects in part B will participate for between 1 hour and two months.
Patients with visual acuity and ocular characteristics outside the Novasight FDA multi-center study are to perform the same Curesight procedures- including M&S EVA or eETDRS patched acuity, stereo and then utilize the Curesight device 1.5 hours per day, 6 days per week over 3-6 months to determine treatment efficacy.

Interest in developing alternative methods for the treatment of amblyopia (lazy eye) has long been a topic of interest among clinicians and researchers. Occlusion or penalization of fellow eye do not always provide the desired visual acuity improvement. Moreover, occlusion is associated with a high risk of recurrence and non-compliance. Here, it is presented a protocol of a randomized clinical trial to evaluate the safety and clinical efficacy of a novel home-based system, based on a computer game. The goal of this prospective clinical trial is to compare in visual acuity improvements in patients with amblyopia, following conventional patching therapy or this novel computer-based therapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does computer-based therapy equal or improve patching therapy? Can it be used as an alternative to patching? - Does computer-based therapy used in combination with pathching solve amblyopia when patching fails alone (persistent amblyopia)? Participants will be divided in two groups according to the previous occlusion o penalization of fellow eye. Both groups will be divided in two subgroups, experimental and control. Researchers will compare subgroups outcomes in order to asses this novel approach.
The goal of this study is to compare the change in amblyopic eye acuity between treatment periods in children with amblyopia, aged 5-17 years. The main question it aims to answer is: Is a 16-week course of amblyopia treatment using Vivid Vision Therapeutic (Dichoptic) Virtual Reality Games for approx. 25 min/day, 6 days/week more effective for improvement in amblyopic-eye VA, binocularity (stereoacuity, suppression, alignment), contrast sensitivity, attention, oculomotor function, visual-motor integration, and quality of life than 16 weeks of continued glasses alone? Participants will each serve as their own control and complete: Treatment period 1: Continued optical correction (glasses) alone for 16 weeks; Treatment period 2: Vivid Vision Therapeutic (Dichoptic) Virtual Reality Games for 16 weeks (approx. 25min/day, 6 days/week) plus continued optical correction
Repeated Red Light Therapy had been used as an amblyopia therapy for children as well as the myopia control in primary schools. However, ultra low lever of red light therapy with irradiance of 0.37mW and 0.60mW effectiveness and safety for 3~ 6 year-old myopia treatment or slow myopia progression are seldom reported.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of visual function training software (model: SJ-JRS2021) in the treatment of mild to moderate amblyopia in children. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Whether virtual reality training is more effective than occlusion therapy - Safety of virtual reality training in amblyopia treatment If participants have refractive problems, correct the refraction first and wear corrective glasses. The experimental group will be treated using visual function training therapy software (model: SJ-JRS2021). The control group will be treated with occlusion therapy covering the contralateral eye for 2 hours a day. Researchers will compare experimental group with control group to see if the experimental group has better corrected vision recovery.
The objectives of this proposal are to characterize the relationship between OCT eccentric fixation (OCT-EF), fixation eye movement (FEM), macular sensitivity in children with amblyopia.
This prospective study aims to observe the predictive effect of peripheral blood plasma biomarker on the outcome of treatment in children with different types of amblyopia. We also investigated the mechanism of neuromodulation in the visual development of amblyopic children.
The purpose of this clinical study is to validate the effectiveness of the Vedea Amblyopia Therapy (VAT) as a treatment for children with lazy eye. The main question it aims to answer is to prove that the VAT is as effective or more effective than the current gold standard for treating children with lazy eye. This is occlusion therapy by patching the dominant eye. Participants will play VR-games specifically designed for children with lazy eye for 30 minutes per day, 5 days per week for 16 weeks. This group of children will be compared to children that undergo regular occlusion therapy to see how both treatments options compare.
