What this Trial Is About
Low vision rehabilitation is a vital part of care for visually impaired patients, who are usually referred to orthoptists to develop visual strategies and optimize residual vision. This rehabilitation significantly improves quality of life by enhancing autonomy and reducing depression. It employs various tools, from traditional exercises to specialized software. Advances in virtual reality (VR) offer new promising opportunities by creating immersive environments tailored to patients' residual vision, increasing motivation and exercise effectiveness. In this context, VisionumVR was developed-a VR test using the Meta Quest 3 headset to assess functional vision during rehabilitation. It evaluates hand-eye coordination, visual discrimination, and visual exploration through a daily-life-inspired task. This standardized 20-minute test aims to measure patients' progress throughout their orthoptic rehabilitation.
