Check early vision changes in infants at risk for brain vision problems
Part of Brain & nervous system, Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This pilot study looks at early vision (what babies can see and how their eyes respond) in children who have risk factors for future “cerebral visual impairment,” meaning vision problems caused by the brain. It may help doctors spot issues earlier and better understand which early visual signs matter.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child was born early (before 37 weeks of pregnancy).
- Your child’s current age is between 34 weeks after conception up to 36 months old.
- Your child has one of the listed risk conditions, such as a genetic syndrome, breathing/oxygen injury around birth, a brain or eye problem, a brain malformation, or a metabolic disease.
- Your child is considered at high risk for future neurological (brain) outcomes.
- A parent/guardian agrees to the study by giving informed consent. (If you refuse, your child can’t join.)

This trial tests a digital program that helps babies and toddlers with vision problems. It aims to catch issues early and improve visual development.
This study looks at how brain injuries or abnormalities affect vision in children. It aims to better understand and diagnose cerebral visual impairment (CVI), a vision problem caused by brain issues rather than eye problems.
This study looks for early signs of vision problems in babies who had brain injuries around the time of birth. It aims to help doctors better identify and predict these issues.
This study looks at eye and vision outcomes in babies who have had lack of oxygen around birth (HIE) and also compares them with healthy “well babies.” It may help doctors better understand how HIE affects the eyes and what to watch for over time.
This study looks at how the brain “mirrors” or responds to actions, with the goal of finding early signs of neurodevelopmental disorders. It includes healthy adults and infants, and infants who may be at risk, to compare brain patterns early on.
This study looks at early detection and early support for babies who are at higher risk of cerebral palsy and developmental delays. It may help by finding concerns sooner and starting help earlier.
