Paid Light Sensitivity Research Opportunity

2318 Fillmore Street near Between Clay and Washington, San Francisco CA

Description

Are you particularly sensitive to light? Scientists and eye physicians at The Smith-Kettlewell Brain Imaging Center in San Francisco are investigating the mechanisms of light sensitivity. As a result, we are seeking adults who have unusual sensitivity to light. We also need an equal number of people with typical vision without such light sensitivity. Participants will undergo behavioral testing with a handheld sensor while viewing colored visual displays. Measurements of eye response to light using electroretinography will also be recorded. The entire procedure will require ONE visit for ~1.5 hours. You are eligible to participate if you are: - Between 18 and 50 years’ old - Have low or high sensitivity to light - In normal health with no known: eye diseases, traumatic brain injuries, neurological conditions - Not pregnant Participants will be compensated up to $25 per hour, plus up to $20 for travel/parking/out-of-pocket reimbursement. If you are interested in participating or have any questions regarding the study, please contact at or the email address in the contact info in the flyer. *Participation for the study will not begin until we deem it safe following CDC's COVID-19 health and safety protocols, please keep in touch.
