Abstract:

Visual manifestations of migraine are largely considered transient, without permanent sequelae. Recent findings raise the possibility of persistent ocular and neural manifestations. This thesis investigates visual function in migraine during the period between episodes by applying various psychophysical tests to two migraine groups (migraine with aura ( n = 20) and migraine without aura (n = 20)) and comparing the results to those of a nonheadache control group (n = 20). Tests were designed to address the level of visual system involvement, and to investigate the extent to which selecti

Abstract:

This study investigated the ability of normal subjects and glaucoma patients to judge the temporal order of small, foveally presented stimuli. Two basic stimulus paradigms were used: Inter-Ocular Temporal Asynchrony (IOTA), and Temporal Order Discrimination (TOD). IOTA, a simple foveal dichoptic temporal order matching technique, was designed to investigate whether the visual system in glaucoma is characterised by interocular asymmetry of visual latency. Preliminary testing showed that IOTA was affected by monocular luminance attenuation using ND filters in normal subjects. Glaucoma subject

Two instruction sets were compared to assess whether information presented to participants would affect thresholds. The results showed that migraineurs had significantly lower thresholds for light

Abstract:

The Charles Bonnet syndrome is characterized by complex visual hallucinations in people without psychopathology or disturbance of normal consciousness. This thesis highlights the association of visual deficits with the syndrome, and proposes that it is analogous to the perception of phantom limbs; both conditions arise when normal sensory input to the brain is severely reduced. The five studies that comprise this thesis systematically gather information on the syndrome to answer three basic questions: how can the hallucinations be classified, what are the clinical implications for individuals

Abstract:

Adaptation to vision impairment was studied by telephone interviews with 78 legally blind adults (mean age 79.5) who had received rehabilitation services from an agency in upstate New York. Data were collected on demographics, health, activity levels, social support, blindness data, adaptation to vision loss (AVL scale, Horwitz and Reinhardt, 2005), and symptoms of Charles Bonnet Syndrome (CBS). Using multiple regression and logistic regression, the most significant predictors of high AVL scores were found to be good interpersonal communication and a relative living close by, while predictors

Faces provide important information necessary for social communication. The current study aimed to evaluate Event-Related Brain Potentials (ERPs) as a method of exploring face processing abilities in fragile X syndrome (FXS), a genetic disorder where social deficits lie at the core of the cognitive phenotype. Neural changes were investigated in three children with FXS across various conditions such as upright vs. inverted faces, intact faces vs. faces with no eyes as well as faces vs. cars. Relative to chronological age matched controls, children with FXS displayed greater N170 amplitudes and

Abstract:

Both the number and proportion of the elderly and people with chronic disability are increasing as a proportion of the entire population, particularly in the over 80 years age range. The most common cause of chronic visual disability in the elderly is age-related maculopathy (ARM). Chronic visual disability, manifested as functional limitations of activities of daily living, often results in psychosocial handicap due to ineffective coping skills. Both low vision services and low vision research have previously been oriented toward functional adjustment to disability, rather than psychosocial a

Abstract:

This research investigated the influence of the normal aging process on truly photopic achromatic and chromatic retinal increment threshold over an extensive range of colored targets. It was found that for both achromatic and chromatic retinal thresholds there is a significant correlation between advancing age and the stimulus luminance intensity at threshold across the visible spectrum. This correlation is greater for the short wavelength range than for both the middle and the long wavelength ranges (r² (achromatic)= 0.43; r²(chromatic) = 0.49.

Purpose: WHO reports 46% of world vision impairment from refractive error (RE) among children occurs in China.

Methods: Data from population-based studies were stratified by gender in age intervals of 3 years (ages 3-17 y) or 10 years (ages >= 30 y): counts of persons with myopia (worse eye spherical equivalent <= -1.0D, <= -2.0D, <= -6.0D) and prevalence of low vision (< 6/12 in the better-seeing eye for children and < 6/18 for adults) and blindness (<=6/60) attributable to RE.

Abstract:

The premise that mature visual function depends upon the nature of visual experience during development is based primarily on experiments showing that visual deprivation during a 'critical' period early in life causes abnormalities in visual cortex and an enduring loss of spatial vision (amplyopia). There is, however, little evidence that early visual experience atually enables mature vision. Experments in this thesis provide such evidence. The measurement of optomotor responses daily from eye opening permanently enhances optomotor sensitivity and the perception of visual motion. The plasticit

The older adult population in the United States is rapidly expanding both because of longer life expectancies as well as the aging of the baby boomers. While vision impairment is a growing concern among older adults, there have been few, mostly small studies, of the impact of vision impairment on this population. The present study uses a national data set, the Second Supplement on Aging (1994 -1996) from the National Health Interview Survey, in a cross-sectional study of 9,447 civilian non-institutionalized persons, aged 70 years and over at the time of their interview.

Abstract:

Binocular rivalry is the perceptual consequence of dichoptic input which is not congruent between both visual inputs. There is some evidence, both theoretical and empirical, that the perception of binocular rivalry is mediated by interactions between binocular neurones, rather than by interactions between monocular neurones. This evidence suggests also a model of perception which predicts binocular rivalry as a consequence of normal interactions between binocular neurones in a retinotopic array. This model accounts for rivalry without postulating any additional interconnections beyond t

Parkinson’s disease and Essential tremor are the two most prevalent movement disorders in the world, but due to overlapping clinical symptoms, accurate differential diagnosis is difficult. As a result, approximately 60% of patients with movement disorders symptoms will have their diagnosis changed at least once before death. By their subjective nature, clinical exams are inherently imprecise, leading to the desire to create an objective, quantifiable test for movement disorders; a test that currently is elusive.
