First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This pilot study will test whether a short eye-exercise program done during dialysis sessions can improve physical function, balance, and fear of falling in people with kidney failure. Thirty adults on maintenance hemodialysis will be randomly assigned to do the exercises or receive usual care. The main goal is to see if the program is feasible and safe, with early signs of benefit.
