The Youth VIEW team at Texas Tech University is seeking families of children who are blind, low vision, or visually impaired to participate in a virtual research study. The goal of the study is to better understand how experiences in families, medical settings, schools, and the community may impact physical and mental health of blind, low vision, and visually impaired children.
To address these important questions, we need 500 families to join the project!
Children (ages 9 to 17) who are blind, low vision, or visually impaired, and living in the United States, are eligible to enroll, along with a parent or guardian. Participation is completely voluntary; whether or not you participate has no impact on you or your child’s access to education, medical care, or employment.
To learn more about the study, please go to our prescreening survey page, which includes detailed information about study procedures, risks, and benefits. If, after reviewing this information, you would like to enroll, you can complete the prescreening survey, which takes 5-10 minutes of your time. Eligible families will then be contacted after completing the prescreener to answer additional questions and to schedule your study session.
