Test a light-response study to measure and track light sensitivity
Part of Brain & nervous system, Eyes & vision, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study aims to objectively measure how your pupils respond to light and how your eye muscles react using recording tests. It may help confirm the cause of light sensitivity (especially after a brain injury) and better track how it responds to care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 80 years old
- You either have normal vision checks (within the past year) or have light sensitivity you want evaluated
- You should not have eye conditions that affect the retina, optic nerve, or pupil (like glaucoma or retinal disease)
- Your health conditions like diabetes or blood pressure should be well controlled
- You should not take medicines or eye drops that could interfere with pupil/light testing (including sedatives, opioids, and certain autonomic or eye medications)

This study tests if a type of brain training called neurofeedback can help reduce sensitivity to light in people who have had a mild traumatic brain injury, also known as a concussion, at least 6 months ago.
This study tests whether a painless light therapy applied to the head can help older adults (55-85) who had a moderate or severe traumatic brain injury 1-2 years ago. It aims to see if the treatment improves thinking and memory.
This trial uses a type of eye scan (OCT) to look at the retina in people with brain conditions like multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, or migraines. It aims to see if these scans can help doctors learn more about the disease and monitor it over time.
This study tests if botulinum toxin type A (Botox) can reduce long-term light sensitivity in people who have had a traumatic brain injury at least a year ago. You must have had light sensitivity for 6 months or more and not have had Botox for face or mouth conditions before.
This study tests a new device called the Traq™ that looks at how well the two eyes work together. It's for people with a recent mild-to-moderate brain injury and for people without one, to see if the device can spot vision changes after injury.
This trial tests whether a training program using colored light targets can help reduce light sensitivity (photophobia) that some people experience after a traumatic brain injury. The training involves focusing your eyes on lights during several visits.
