Factors in Learning And Plasticity: Healthy Vision (NCT05439759)
Characterization of Multiple Factors in Training and Plasticity in Central Vision Loss: Healthy Vision
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
A greater understanding of plasticity after central vision loss can inform new therapies for treating low vision and has the potential to benefit millions of individuals suffering from low vision. The treatment of low vision is particularly relevant to the mission of the National Eye Institute (NEI) to support research on visual disorders, mechanisms of visual function, and preservation of sight. The comparison of different training and outcome factors is in line with the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) Research Domain Criteria (RDOC) framework and studies in an aging population are consistent with the mission of the National Institute on Aging (NIA).
