Detailed Description

This is a pilot, open-label study of a 2-month treatment with VIZO Glasses. Following the enrollment, the participants will go through an adjustment process where they will be fitted with a personalized pair of VIZO Glasses. The participants will be instructed to wear the glasses throughout the day for two months. A follow-up visit at the end of the 2-month treatment will be conducted to assess the efficacy of VIZO Glasses on managing ADHD symptoms, using the ADHD Rating Scale (ADHD-RS) parent-report questionnaire, the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function (BRIEF), the Conners Continuous Performance Test-3, and the Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I). Safety will be monitored by documentation of adverse events.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in the ADHD Rating Scale (ADHD-RS) parent-report questionnaire
Time Frame: Baseline, 2-month
The ADHD-RS is a parent report questionnaire that is used to aid in the diagnosis of ADHD in children ranging from ages 5-17. The questionnaire contains 18 symptom items corresponding to the DSM-V criteria for ADHD. The parent rates each symptom item on a 4-point Likert scale ranging from 0 ('Never or Rarely') to 3 ('Very Often'). The total score goes from 0 up to 54. Higher scores mean more symptoms and higher ADHD impairments.
Baseline, 2-month

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function (BRIEF)
Time Frame: Baseline, 2-month
The BRIEF is a standardized measure that captures views of executive functions or self-regulation in the everyday environment. The BRIEF is composed of 86 items, where each item is rated by the parent, using a 3-point Likert scale ranging from 1 ('Never') to 3 ('Often').
Baseline, 2-month
Change in Conners' Continuous Performance Test-3 (CPT-3)
Time Frame: Baseline, 2-month
Conners' Continuous Performance Test-3 (CPT-3) is an objective test of attention and impulsivity that has been validated in individuals aged 8 years and older.
Baseline, 2-month
Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I)
Time Frame: 2-month
Based on an interview with the participant, the clinician rates the total improvement on a 7 point scale as follows: 1=very much improved since the initiation of treatment; 2=much improved; 3=minimally improved; 4=no change from baseline (the initiation of treatment); 5=minimally worse; 6= much worse; 7=very much worse since the initiation of treatment.
2-month
