Visual Acuity Clinical Trial
Official title:
Effects of Forward Head Posture Correction on Visual Acuity and Fatigue in Low Level Visually Impaired University Students
The aim of this research is to find the effect of forward head posture correction on visual acuity and fatigue in low level visually impaired university students. Randomized controlled trials at Cecos University of IT and Emerging Sciences would be done. The sample size would be 48. The subjects would be divided in two groups, 24 subjects Intervention group and 24 in control group. Study duration would be 6 months. Sampling technique applied would be a non-probability convenience sampling technique. Only 18-25 years low level visually impaired university students with forward head posture would be included. Tools used in the study would be asthenopia questionnaire, Snellen chart and CVA angle photogrammetry

Primary | Snellen Chart | Universally used for measuring visual acuity. | 4 weeks | |
Primary | Asthenopia Questionnaire | Used for measuring Visual fatigue. | 4 weeks | |
Primary | Craniovertebral Angle | Craniovertebral angle is measured by taking 2 lateral photographs of the subject in a relaxed seated position without a back support. Spinous process of C7 and the tragus of ear are marked with a body marker. A horizontal line is drawn passing through C7 making a right angle with the vertical. | 4 weeks |
