Study of A New Contact Lens Cleaning and Disinfecting Solution

Vision Disorders

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a new investigational cleaning and disinfecting solution (Test) compared to Clear Care cleaning and disinfecting solution (Control) when used by contact lens wearers to clean and disinfect their contact lenses for approximately three months.

Effect of Lens Presentation on the Clinical Oculomotor Assessment at Near

Vision Disorders

This study will compare near clinical oculomotor parameters (heterophoria, vergence ranges, AC/A and accommodative findings) measured when lenses and/or prisms are introduced using three different instruments namely: (i) a standard manual phoropter, (ii) an electronic phoropter and (iii) a wearable adaptive refractor (VisionFit).

Nonvisual Foot Inspection for People With Visual Imapirment

DiabetesVisual Impairment

The purpose of this study was to find out whether a method of nonvisual foot inspection, using the senses of touch and smell, helps people with diabetes and visual impairment to find new foot problems when they are in early, easily-treated stages. All people in the study had regular foot inspections by podiatrists. The results include how people feel about the method, whether they actually did check their feet it, and whether the method helped them to discover foot problems themselves.

The Effect of Light Deprivation on Visual Functions in Adult Amblyopes

AmblyopiaAnisometropia1 more

Amblyopia is a significant health problem, affecting up to 4% of the population in the United States. Amblyopia, commonly known as "lazy eye," is a developmental visual disorder in which one or both eyes suffer from poor vision as a result of being disadvantaged in early life. Strabismus, or eye misalignment, such as crossed eyes (esotropia) or wandering eyes (exotropia), and anisometropia, or a power difference between the eyes, are the most common causes of amblyopia. If conventional treatment, such as patching the better seeing eye, is not initiated during the critical period of visual development, lasting visual impairment may persist throughout life. This critical period of visual development has been thought to end around age 10. However, recent research has demonstrated that the critical period of visual development can be extended into adulthood. Complete light deprivation in animal models has restored plasticity in the visual cortex and has demonstrated drastic recovery of vision in amblyopic eyes. The objective of this pilot study is to evaluate the impact of complete light deprivation on visual function in a cohort of human adults with severe amblyopia from anisometropia.

Unmet Needs, Barriers and Facilitators to Vision Services for Children and Adolescents With Special...

Vision Disorders

Children and adolescents with special needs, compared to those with general development, have a much higher incidence of visual impairments (10.5% vs. 0.16%). This project will focus on "children and adolescents with special visual care needs", comprehensively exploring their unmet needs in ophthalmology and visual care, as well as the obstacles and facilitators they may encounter in the process of seeking ophthalmic services. The purposes of this study will investigate the current needs of children and adolescents with special visual care needs in ophthalmology and visual medical services, and the obstacles and potential facilitators encountered by children and adolescents with special visual care needs in the process of obtaining ophthalmology and visual medical services.

Premavision Cohort Follow-up

Visual Disorder

This study aim at following a cohort of prematurely born infants at 18 months corrected age, 4 and 7 years of age. This cohort had an evaluation of visual maturation at term equivalent age (TEA) with factors associated with impaired visual maturation. (PREMAVISION-CLinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT02890251). In this follow-up study, prematurely born infants vision will be compared to term born infants matched for postnatal age.

Study and Treatment of Visual Dysfunction and Motor Fatigue in Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple SclerosisInternuclear Ophthalmoplegia1 more

Primary fatigue represents a major cause of disability in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), being reported in about 90% of cases. Fatigue interferes with everyday functioning but, unfortunately, little is known about its mechanisms. The investigators propose a characteristic eye movement abnormality (internuclear ophthalmoparesis, INO), commonly encountered in MS, as a simple model for primary motor fatigue. The investigators described worsening of ocular performance in MS patients with INO following visual tasks (ocular motor fatigue), which is likely due to decreased neural conduction along brain pathways injured by MS. This mechanism could represent a major component of MS-related primary motor fatigue. Relevant to Veterans' care, INO is a significant cause of visual disability, especially when complicated by ocular fatigue, and limits daily activities such as reading and driving. The investigators propose a medical treatment to improve ocular performance/fatigue in INO, which can reduce visual disability and improve quality of life in Veterans with MS.

Countermeasures for Visual Impairment in Astronauts

Space Flight Associated Neuro-ocular Syndrome

This study is being done to prevent changes in the vision of astronauts during prolonged residence on the International Space Station or a mission to Mars. This project will provide data about the efficacy of lower body negative pressure to mimic daily upright posture by intermittently lowering central venous pressure while in simulated microgravity (3 days of bed rest). The investigators expect that 3 days of bed rest will increase choroid thickness, and choroid area. The investigators hypothesize that nightly LBNP (-20mmHg) will prevent these changes.
