A Novel Eye Tracking–Based Gamified Assessment of Contrast Sensitivity Function in Children: Prospective Development and Reliability Study

This study introduces a paradigm shift in pediatric visual assessment by leveraging objective eye tracking and gamified engagement to transform contrast sensitivity testing into a scalable, child-friendly process. The ETGCSF tool demonstrated strong reliability and markedly improved efficiency in assessing CSF in preschool children aged 3 to 6 years. These findings support ETGCSF as a promising tool for real-world clinical practice, and its modular design holds potential for future adaptations ranging from streamlined rapid screening in very young children to full CSF profiling for research.

Abstract

This study introduces a paradigm shift in pediatric visual assessment by leveraging objective eye tracking and gamified engagement to transform contrast sensitivity testing into a scalable, child-friendly process. The ETGCSF tool demonstrated strong reliability and markedly improved efficiency in assessing CSF in preschool children aged 3 to 6 years. These findings support ETGCSF as a promising tool for real-world clinical practice, and its modular design holds potential for future adaptations ranging from streamlined rapid screening in very young children to full CSF profiling for research.
