Can Eye-Tracking reveal if autism therapy is working?

NCT ID NCT05675371

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This completed study tested a device called EarliPoint that uses eye-tracking to monitor changes in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or developmental delays. Researchers followed 325 children aged 15-84 months over 180 days to see if the device could detect improvements in verbal ability, non-verbal learning, and social disability. The goal was to see if this tool could help doctors track treatment progress more objectively.

EarliPoint System (eye-tracking device)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could provide a simple, objective way to measure how well autism treatments are working over time.

What could go wrong

This was an observational study, not a treatment trial. The device is still new, and it may not reliably track changes in all children.
