What this Trial Is About
This research aims to evaluate a new method for measuring peripheral vision using a wearable device called VisuALL, which functions as virtual reality goggles. The study compares this new test to the standard Humphrey Visual Field (HVF) test commonly used in eye exams. It involves both healthy children and young adults, as well as those with eye conditions requiring visual field testing as part of their usual care. Participants will either undergo both the standard HVF test and the VisuALL test or only the VisuALL test during a regular eye appointment. Selected participants may also receive training and be loaned a VisuALL device to perform visual field testing at home. The tests do not involve touching the eyes or using eye drops and are considered safe with no known risks aside from potential confidentiality concerns. During the study visit, which takes about 30 minutes, various visual field results will be measured, including mean deviation, pattern standard deviation, and sensitivity. Researchers will also assess the ability to use the VisuALL device both in-office and at home, as well as participant satisfaction through questionnaires. There is no extra cost to participate, and parking is compensated on the visit day. The study will continue until July 2028.
