Survey Participants Wanted: Exploring the Influence of Vision Loss on Musical Activities

Researchers at the University of Melbourne and the Centre for Eye Research Australia are currently seeking participants for an online survey.

The research explores how vision loss may influence musical activities and experiences in everyday life. They are inviting adult participants, both, people living with vision loss and those with healthy vision, to take part in an anonymous online survey.

The survey contains a maximum of 27 questions and takes approximately 10 minutes to complete, although it may take longer for individuals whose vision affects reading speed. Participation is completely voluntary and anonymous.

The research team aims to gather at least 400 responses, and the survey is expected to remain open for approximately till the end of July, 2026.
