Virtual Reality Visual Field Testing as an Alternative in Childhood Eye Disease
NCT05150197 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The purpose of this study is to test a new way of measuring the peripheral vision (called a visual field test) using a device which can be worn as goggles rather than being a large instrument the patient must sit at. This new visual field test (called VisuALL) is an FDA-approved virtual reality system which has been used in adults and children. This study will compare the performance of the VisuALL to the standard testing for peripheral vision, which is called the Humphrey Visual Field (HVF) test. The study will recruit both healthy children, as well children and young adults who have eye conditions which require visual field testing as part of their standard care. The test will be performed on a day when the child or young adult already has a scheduled eye appointment as standard care. The test does not touch the eyes or require any eye drops to be given, and there is no known risk associated with the test itself. There may be a risk of loss of confidentiality. Participating in this study will require approximately 30 minutes, has no extra cost associated with it, and will be compensated by a parking pass for the day of the visit. There are no direct benefits for participants. Selected participants will be also be given training and then loaned a home VisuALL system to allow home visual field testing. If your child is selected, additional information would be provided.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT05150197
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT05150197 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 1,000 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Duke University, which has 1,129 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Visual Field Defect, Peripheral appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which VisuALL is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT05150197 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include North Carolina. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
