Filter by:To understand the benefits of the neurolens Measurement Device and neurolens treatment as it pertains to treating symptoms related to Convergence Insufficiency. It is a Prospective randomized double masked two arm performed on a minimum of 100 to a maximum of 150 subjects identified as symptomatic (CISS questionnaire score equal to or greater than 16) done across 3-10 clinical sites. There are two subgroups: a minimum of 50 in each subgroup(subgroup 1: pre-presbyopic (18-40 years); subgroup 2: presbyopic subjects(41-60 years).
To understand the benefits of the neurolens Measurement Device and neurolens treatment as it pertains to treating symptoms related to Chronic Headaches. It is a Prospective randomized double masked two arm performed on a minimum of 200 to a maximum of 300 subjects identified as symptomatic (HIT-6 questionnaire score equal to or greater than 56) done across 3-15 clinical sites. There are two subgroups: a minimum of 100 in each subgroup (subgroup 1: pre-presbyopic (18-40 years); subgroup 2: presbyopic subjects (41-60 years).
A large proportion of concussion patients with long-term consequences of concussion experience visually related symptoms such as headache, blurred vision, double vision, and fatigue. These patients often have difficulties coordinating the movement of the two eyes (convergence insufficiency) which is essential for single and clear vision to be obtained and is hence a likely explanation for the symptoms. 100 patients with long-term symptoms of concussion and convergence insufficiency will be offered either exercises or placebo treatment the evaluate the effect of exercises aimed at improving coordination between the two eyes. The study will provide data to support clinicians in deciding whether to use exercises or not as a treatment of symptoms for patients with convergence insufficiency as a long-term consequence of concussion.
The purpose of this research study is to see how well the treatment of a participant's eye coordination and/or focusing problems improves eye muscle responses and symptoms of eyestrain. We will use an entertainment device called a virtual reality headset to play a custom-designed video game to find out how well the treatment of binocular vision improves a participant's coordination and/or focusing problem. The virtual reality headset uses eye-trackers to monitor progress in a totally objective manner. Objective testing allows the doctor to determine the results without relying on a participant's ability to answer questions or respond verbally in any way. We will compare the results of a participant before and after playing the video game.
There is association between eye movement disorder and cognitive dysfunction. Therefore, utilizing eye movement and screening for cognitive dysfunction is feasible. In the present study, we will develop an artificial intelligence platform to screening for cognitive dysfunction by inspecting the function of eye movement. Futher more, based on the screening results, the platform will offer referral suggestions.
This is a multi-center, randomized single-blind controlled trial to compare the effectiveness of S-BLR with C-BLR for the treatment of CI-IXT in children. Specific Aim 1 (Primary): To compare the surgical successful rate of S-BLR with C-BLR for the treatment of CI-IXT in children. Specific Aim 2 (Secondary): To study the suboptimal surgical outcomes between S-BLR and C-BLR for the treatment of CI-IXT in children.
The ICONICC Study is a randomized controlled clinical trial designed to compare the proportion of successful treatment outcomes between children assigned to standard concussion care only, standard concussion care plus simple convergence procedures, or standard concussion care plus office-based vergence/accommodative therapy in children aged 11 to 17 years with symptomatic post-concussion syndrome. Children with post-concussion syndrome (4-12 weeks post-concussion injury) and symptomatic CI will be randomized to a 12-week treatment program of either standard concussion care (SC), SC plus simple convergence procedures (SC+), or SC plus office-based vergence/accommodative therapy SC+OBVAT (1:1:1 ratio). The study will also compare the effect of treatment on clinical measures of both accommodation and vergence, symptom level/burden, health-related quality of life, clinical measures of saccadic eye movement, and objective eye movement measurements of disparity vergence, saccadic function, and accommodative function. The attainment of objective eye movement measures provides an opportunity to understand the underlying neurophysiology of the vergence and accommodative systems. Objective eye movement recordings are powerful because of the rich foundation from primate single-cell recordings that show a direct correlation with vergence and accommodative parameters in the supraoculomotor area of midbrain2, 3 and the oculomotor vermis of the cerebellum.4, 5 Thus, a combined approach of acquiring both clinical vision function measures and objective eye movement recordings in children with PCS-CI may lead to better characterization of the oculomotor phenotype with subsequent improved and personalized therapeutic interventions.
Convergence insufficiency (CI) is a prevalent binocular vision disorder with symptoms that include double/blurred vision, eyestrain, and headaches when engaged in reading or other near work. CI is present in 4% of the population where approximately 27% of CI patients do not improve even with validated therapy. The project will quantitatively study changes in convergence eye movements and neural substrates before and after validated therapy in CI patients. This knowledge can lead to improvements in currently validated therapy, reduction in therapy sessions, and reduced healthcare costs.
We compared the effectiveness of three active vision therapy approaches for convergence insufficiency (CI). Patients with eligible criteria and symptomatic CI were included in a prospective study and randomly allocated into three groups. In the home-based vision orthoptic therapy (HBVOT) group, patients were trained to do the pencil push-ups procedure 15 minutes per day, five days a week. In the office-based vision orthoptic therapy (OBVOT) group, 60 minutes of orthoptic therapy using a major amblyoscope twice weekly with additional home orthoptic therapy was prescribed. For the augmented office-based vision orthoptic therapy (AOBVOT) group, orthoptic exercises using three diopter over-minus lenses and a base out prism, in addition to major amblyoscope and additional home reinforcement was prescribed in the same period of time.
The purpose of this single center, longitudinal, pilot study is to provide evidence for the use of an eye tracking system as an objective tool to identify mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) related oculomotor dysfunction (OMD) and predict the effectiveness of neurovision rehabilitation (NVR) of OMD. Eye tracking visual stimulus measurements will be compared to objective developmental optometrist (OD) diagnosis and assessments. It will be determined whether an eye tracking system can predict the presence or absence of mTBI related OMD and whether mTBI patients who have OMD based on the eye tracking system will respond positively to NVR.
