Headset therapy could reduce need for eye surgery in children

NCT ID NCT06529016

Summary

This study is testing whether a special headset therapy can improve eye alignment in children aged 4-7 with intermittent exotropia, where one eye occasionally drifts outward. Current treatments often involve surgery, with many children needing repeat operations. The therapy involves watching modified videos through the headset for one hour daily over 12 weeks to train the eyes to work together better.
