Study summary

The goal of this interventional study is to learn if an educational intervention improves awareness in people experiencing visual loss. The main question it aim to answer is:

  • Will participants have an improved awareness of shared experiences regarding themes such as grief and isolation?

Participants will be asked to answer questions, engage with an audiovisual educational intervention, and then answer additional questions.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Change from Baseline in Educational Awareness of Shared Themes as Measured by Likert-scale Questions

    Higher values (or increases relative to baseline) correspond to better outcomes, with each question having a minimum value of 1 and a maximum value of 5.

    Time frame: From baseline to completion of post-intervention questions (e.g., within 1 week).

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change from Baseline in Screening Measures of Depression and Anxiety as Measured by the Patient Health Questionnaire 4 (PHQ-4)

    Lower values (or decreases relative to baseline) correspond to better outcomes, with each question having a minimum value of 0 and a maximum value of 3.

    Time frame: From baseline to completion of post-intervention questions (e.g., within 1 week).

  2. Change from Baseline of Vision-Related Wellbeing as Measured by the Visual Function Questionnaire 25 (VFQ-25) Socioemotional Wellbeing Subscale

    Time frame: From baseline to completion of post-intervention questions (e.g., within 1 week).

Timeline

1 registry update since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started Jul 2026 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for May 2027, 10 months after the start.

Of 84 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Vision Disorders, half reached primary completion within 31 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 7 and three quarters within 51. This study's planned 10 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 94 studies reached it within 24 months; a quarter within 6 and three quarters within 51.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
