Does saving the eye help kids feel better later? study asks retinoblastoma survivors

NCT ID NCT03662776

Summary

This study aims to understand how two different treatments for childhood eye cancer (retinoblastoma) affect survivors' long-term quality of life. Researchers are comparing children who had their eye removed with those who received chemotherapy directly into the eye's artery to save it. They will survey 120 survivors, aged 8-17, to learn about their emotional health, behavior, and daily functioning, hoping to improve future care.
