Using a pupil light response device to check optic nerve health in suspected multiple sclerosis
Part of Brain & nervous system, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study is testing a handheld device that measures how your pupils respond to light. It may help detect early damage to the optic nerve in people suspected of having multiple sclerosis.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 60 years old.
- You have been referred to a specialist because your doctor suspects multiple sclerosis or a similar condition.
- You have had a brain MRI, including special images of your eye area.
- You have had tests to check your vision pathways, such as visual evoked potentials (VEP) and optical coherence tomography (OCT).
- You have no other past neurological or eye conditions that could interfere with the results.

This study checks how well a device can measure how your pupils respond to colored light. It may help improve eye testing, especially when monitoring certain vision and nerve conditions.
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.
This study tests how fast and how accurately your eyes process visual information and how eye movements look in people with multiple sclerosis. It may help researchers understand vision-related effects of MS using objective eye measurements.
This study uses detailed eye measurements to compare findings in people with pseudotumor cerebri and in healthy eyes. It may help researchers understand how pupil responses and eye structure change with pseudotumor cerebri.
This study looks at how your pupils react to light in healthy people. It may help doctors understand normal eye responses, which could improve future eye tests.
This study checks how well new eye-tracking software can measure eye movements in people with multiple sclerosis. It may help researchers track changes in how the nervous system works using a simple camera-based eye test.
