Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.

Summary

This study tested whether a special stick-on lens called a Fresnel prism can help people with hemianopia (blindness on one side of vision) see a wider area. Twenty-five adults with this condition wore the prism on their glasses for a period. The researchers measured changes in their visual field and how comfortable the prism felt. The goal was to see if this simple device could improve mobility and reduce fall risk.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Fresnel prism (a special stick-on lens placed on glasses to widen the field of vision)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, non-surgical way to help people with hemianopia see more to their blind side, reducing falls and improving confidence.
What could go wrong
This was a small, single-site study with only 25 participants and no comparison group. The prism may cause visual confusion or discomfort, and results may not apply to everyone.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * subjects with a diagnosis of partial or complete homonymous hemianopia based on the results of the Humphrey perimetry examination; * age 18 years or older; * corrected visual acuity of 6/18 or better; and * willing to give consent for this study and consistently follow the rehabilitation process.
