Virtual reality for single-eye nerve palsy
Part of Brain & nervous system, Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests a virtual reality headset that uses head movements to help people with a single-eye nerve palsy move their eye better. It may help if you have limited eye movement due to a nerve condition.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a cranial nerve palsy that limits the movement of one eye by at least 50%.
- You can read and understand spoken English and give consent.
- You do not have the condition in both eyes.
- Your vision in each eye is at least 20/100, and the difference between eyes is no more than 4 lines on a vision chart.
- You are able to wear a VR headset without discomfort or motion sensitivity.

This trial tests whether a virtual reality self-rehabilitation program can help people recover movement and reduce unwanted muscle contractions after recent facial paralysis. You would practice facial exercises using VR technology at home to retrain your facial muscles.
This early-stage study uses virtual reality tasks to check how well a person can move and function using their eyesight. It may help researchers measure vision abilities in a way that could guide future care for retinal disease.
This study uses virtual reality to measure how well your neck moves and senses position. It looks for people with long-term neck pain and healthy volunteers to compare results.
This trial tests if virtual reality-based optokinetic stimulation can help people with balance problems caused by reduced function in one inner ear. It may offer a new way to retrain your balance system.
This trial tests whether immersive virtual reality can help people with brain injury who have spatial neglect (trouble noticing things on one side). You would use VR goggles to do tasks aimed at improving attention and arm movement.
This study uses virtual reality to understand how vision loss from a stroke affects navigation. You may help researchers learn more by wearing a VR headset and doing simple tasks.
