Study Summary

This trial is testing a new device to see if it can help young children better tolerate and cooperate with a common eye test. The device shows cartoon characters on a small screen and plays audio clips of impersonated cartoon character voices.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children aged 5-8 who can complete vision tests and have been seen at Nova Southeastern University's The Eye Care Institute for possible glaucoma or optic nerve issues. They must understand English well and be able to communicate their responses.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing a new way to do vision tests using cartoon videos and character voices as instructions, hoping it will keep kids' attention better than the usual method. This could make the test results more reliable.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves non-invasive visual field testing with cartoons and audio instructions, there are no direct medical side effects expected from participating in this study.
