NCT ID NCT05394987
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether wearing the right glasses can improve vision in adults with amblyopia (lazy eye). Researchers will measure how well participants see before, during, and after wearing custom spectacles. The goal is to see if the adult brain can still learn to see better with just optical correction. 36 adults aged 18-39 with lazy eye will take part.
