New treatment option for Visual Rehabilitation
Official title In-person and Telehealth Visual Rehabilitation for Children With Low Vision
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06701617
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- Restorative visual rehabilitation is frequently used to enhance the visual development and function of children with low vision. An important strategy within this field is visual stimulation, which is particularly used for infants and toddlers with low vision, as well as for children who have both developmental disabilities and low vision.This study has two primary objectives.The first objective is to examine the effect of using intensive, specific, and flickering black-and-white checkerboard patterns to enhance visual function in children with mild to moderate low vision.
