Amblyopia
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of the OKKO Space Academy app as a vision measuring and home-monitoring tool for children aged 3-8 years undergoing amblyopia treatment. There are three objectives to this work: 1. Determine the feasibility of the OKKO Space Academy app for use between clinic visits from the child's and family perspective (i.e., acceptability, usability and engagement). 2. Assess the variability in day-to-day OKKO Health measurements between clinic visits (e.g., do the interim OKKO home vision measurements predict improvements in visual acuity?) 3. Explore agreement between the OKKO Space Academy measures of visual acuity against in-clinic measurements (usual standard of care), including an exploration of intra- and inter-session repeatability.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Feasibility and acceptability of home monitoring using the OKKO Health app | 3 months | The feasibility and acceptability of the OKKO Space Academy app for use between clinic visits from the child's and family perspective. This will be assessed through a purpose built questionnaire. |
| Engagement of home monitoring using the OKKO Health app | 3 months | The rate of engagement with the OKKO Space Academy app for use between clinic visits by the child (patient) and the family. |
| Variability in app data. | 3 months | The variability in day-to-day OKKO Health measurements between clinic visits (e.g., do the interim OKKO home vision measurements predict changes in visual acuity?) |
| Visual acuity | 3 months | Exploring the agreement between the OKKO Space Academy measures of visual acuity against in-clinic measurements (usual standard of care), including an exploration of intra- and inter-session repeatability. |
