Safety Evaluation in Healthy Adults of Motion-Based Virtual Reality Dichoptic Training for Pediatric Patients With Amblyopia: Prospective Intervention Study
The motion-based VR dichoptic training app demonstrated minimal adverse ocular effects in healthy adult participants, suggesting that it is safe for use in this population. These findings demonstrate the feasibility and good tolerability of this VR-based intervention in healthy adults. Further studies, including clinical studies in adult and pediatric patients with amblyopia, are warranted to evaluate its applicability and therapeutic effects.
