Trial summary

Despite its low spatial resolution, peripheral vision is very useful for rapidly categorizing a visual scene. Low spatial frequencies of a visual stimulus available in peripheral vision would allow a coarse categorization of the scene and objects (deciding, for example, whether it is an urban or natural landscape).

About this study

Official title: Role of Peripheral Vision in Scene Perception

Despite its low spatial resolution, peripheral vision is very useful for rapidly categorizing a visual scene. Low spatial frequencies of a visual stimulus available in peripheral vision would allow a coarse categorization of the scene and objects (deciding, for example, whether it is an urban or natural landscape). This first representation would then trigger predictive mechanisms which would subsequently guide a more detailed visual analysis in central vision. The psychophysical studies that the investigators have already conducted in this scientific context has been carried out under normal vision conditions. The objective of this project is to study the influence of peripheral vision on central vision with an original approach: What are the consequences of a loss of peripheral vision on the processing performed in central vision? The project will concern patients with glaucoma. This ophthalmic pathology particularly affects the peripheral retina and thus represents a good pathological cognitive model of a visual recognition system in which peripheral vision is less important. The investigators will conduct psychophysical studies with glaucomatous patients and healthy volunteers with normal vision. All participants will be required to perform a short experiment on a computer (15 minutes) where they will look at different photographs of scenes of different luminance and spatial frequencies. Participants will have to perform various tasks on these images using the keys on the keyboard.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Psychophysical measure : Percentage of correct response

    Measure calculated by the comparison between the expected response and the response provided by the participant for each trial of the experiment

    Measured: Through study completion of 45 months

  2. Psychophysical measure : Mean reaction time in milliseconds

    Measure calculated by averaging the time in milliseconds taken by the participant to provide the response for each trial of the experiment

    Measured: Through study completion of 45 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Primary Open-angle Glaucoma (POAG), run by University Hospital, Grenoble.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Sep 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Carole Peyrin, PhD (04 76 82 58 79, carole.peyrin@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Psychophysical measure : Percentage of correct response (time frame: Through study completion of 45 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05539508, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Sep 2022.
