Active clinical trials for "Amblyopia"

Pediatric eye patients receive infrared photoscreener screening and skiascopy as a part of routine examination to compare ability to detect amblyopia risk factors.

The investigators are conducting a prospective evaluation of the ability of two vision photoscreening devices (GoCheck Kids and the Welch Allyn Spot Vision Screener) to detect risk factors for amblyopia. Photoscreeners function similar to having a picture taken with a camera. Amblyopia is decreased vision in one or both eyes due to decreased vision development in the brain resulting from decreased visual stimulation. Children ages 1 year to less than 7 years of age referred to a pediatric ophthalmologist at Yale New Haven Health and Yale Medicine locations for a failed vision screen will be offered participation. The ability of each screening device to detect amblyopia risk factors will be compared with the results of a complete eye exam performed by the practitioner.

The purpose of this project is to compare the performance of the Pediatric Vision Scanner (PVS) with the Gold Standard Examination to determine the effectiveness of the PVS at detecting amblyopia and strabismus.

To identify vision-screening tests that can accurately predict those three- and four-year old preschoolers who would benefit from a comprehensive vision examination because of signs of amblyopia, strabismus, and/or significant refractive error.

This trial aims to assess the accuracy and test-retest variability of a new digital app which enables community visual acuity testing without requirement of an trained examiner.

This study will evaluate the effectiveness of refractive correction alone for the treatment of previously untreated strabismic or combined-mechanism amblyopia in children 3 to <7 years old with visual acuity of 20/40 to 20/400

The purpose of this project is to compare the performance of the Pediatric Vision Scanner (PVS) with the Gold Standard Examination to determine the effectiveness of the PVS at detecting amblyopia and strabismus. All tests and observations will be done at a single visit over the course of approximately 30 minutes.

The purpose of this project is to compare the performance of the Pediatric Vision Scanner (PVS) with the Gold Standard Examination to determine the effectiveness of the PVS at detecting amblyopia and strabismus.

After 28 years of development, the binocular birefringence screener ("blinq," "Rebion") was commercially released. It need to be validated with AAPOS (American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus) criteria in part because the next Uniform Standards document is pending. Adult and children pediatric and strabismus patients were screened with blinq and "2WIN" photoscreener with "CR" corneal reflex alignment test and then compared to confirmatory exam with age-appropriate determination of binocular status.

Amblyopia, a developmental abnormality that impairs spatial vision, is a major cause of vision loss, resulting in reduced visual acuity and reduced sensitivity to contrast. This study uses psychophysical measures to study neural plasticity in adults with amblyopia.
