New ways to measure vision-related quality of life
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests new technology, like tablet apps and virtual reality headsets, to better measure how your vision affects your daily life. It may help improve how we understand and track vision problems in people with diseases of the optic nerve or retina.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have a disease that affects the optic nerve or retina, such as glaucoma, optic neuritis, or macular degeneration.
- You can use a tablet or virtual reality headset (for example, you can tap a screen or hold a device).
- You agree to participate and sign a consent form.

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 trial tests how well an EyeCTester smartphone app can measure vision blind spots and distorted vision compared with standard eye tests. If you qualify, you’ll do short near-vision and “Amsler grid” style tasks in the clinic to help confirm the app is accurate.
This study looks at how life quality changes or is measured in adults who have vision problems and are in specialized vision rehabilitation. You may be asked to answer questionnaires to help the research team understand your experience.
This study is looking at how people with inherited retinal disease that affects peripheral vision see and move around. It will test a new way to measure vision and navigation to see if it can help doctors understand how the disease affects daily life.
This study tests new ways to diagnose glaucoma (and sometimes related eye conditions) using eye exams and measurements. It may help improve how doctors detect glaucoma earlier and more accurately.
This study looks at how glaucoma affects daily activities, like driving. It compares people with glaucoma to healthy volunteers to understand how the disease impacts everyday tasks, which may help with future care and safety recommendations.
