Eye focus test after close-up screen time
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study measures how quickly your eyes refocus after looking at close-up images or videos for a while. It may help researchers understand eye strain from screens.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 35 years old.
- You have normal vision or wear glasses or contacts that give you 20/20 vision or better.
- You do not have fragile or loose teeth, because you'll need to bite gently on a small piece of dental clay to keep your head still.
- You are not currently pregnant, since the test requires sitting still for some time.
- You do not have heart disease or a personal or family history of epilepsy.

This test checks if a new type of soft contact lens changes the thickness of a layer in your eye (called the choroid) after wearing it for just 1 hour. It may help understand how lenses could slow down nearsightedness.
This trial studies how different types of light-sensitive cells in your eye work to help you focus. It involves sitting still and looking at lights while measurements are taken.
This study looks at how your body posture and eye movements are affected when using screens while wearing different kinds of eyeglasses. It may help if you wear glasses for distance, reading, or both.
This study tests if a full-spectrum screen light can help reduce eye strain and dryness caused by using electronic devices. If you spend a lot of time on screens and have healthy eyes, you may be able to join.
This trial uses an eye-tracking camera or software to measure how your eyes move while you do simple tasks. It’s meant to test whether the eye-tracking system can reliably collect useful movement data in people like you.
This study tracks how much time children spend looking at screens versus outdoor activities and how that relates to their eye health over 3 years. Researchers will give your child a special device to wear at home to measure their visual habits.
