Official Title: Video Diversion During Fundoscopic Exam in Children: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Brief Summary:

Fundoscopy is an important aspect of the neurological examination, but can be challenging in uncooperative children. This study explored whether viewing a video (selected by patient or caregiver) during eye examination improves the success, duration and ease of pediatric fundoscopy.

Hypothesis: Showing a short video clip during a fundoscopic exam will increase the probability of successfully visualizing the optic disk and reduce the amount of time needed to perform a fundoscopic exam in children between 1-8 years old.
