Summary

This study compares a new virtual reality goggle device (VisuALL) to the standard Humphrey Visual Field test for measuring peripheral vision in children. Researchers will enroll 1000 healthy children and those with eye conditions, testing them during a routine eye appointment. The goal is to see if the VR test is as accurate and easier for kids to use.
