ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is looking at how different types of visual training can help improve dynamic visual acuity (DVA), which is our ability to see moving objects clearly. The researchers want to compare two methods: playing action video games and using stroboscopic glasses, which are special glasses that flash light in a way that challenges your vision. By understanding which method works better, the study hopes to help athletes and others improve their visual skills, especially in fast-paced environments.
To participate in this trial, you should be between the ages of 6 and 24 and have good vision—meaning you should not have issues like strabismus (crossed eyes) or amblyopia (lazy eye). It’s important that you haven’t done a lot of training in a sport (more than 3 hours a week) over the past year. If you join the study, you can expect to take part in some fun activities involving video games or glasses designed for visual training, and you’ll be helping researchers learn more about how to improve visual skills!
