To investigate the effect of eccentric refractive correction and full aberration on both high- low-contrast grating resolution at preferred retinal locus (PRL) a single low-vision subject with long-standing central scotoma.The was 68-year-old women bilateral absolute scotoma due to Stargardt disease. She developed PRL located 25° nasally damaged macula in her left eye, this being better two eyes. High- (100%) (25 10%) acuity evaluated using four different conditions. The first corrections...
Abstract Purpose To investigate the cost‐effectiveness of a basic vision rehabilitation service (basic‐VRS) in Portugal. We designed parallel group, randomised controlled trial whose aim is to compare effects and costs ‘usual low care’ with ‘basic‐VRS intervention’ on self‐reported visual ability other psychosocial health‐related quality‐of‐life outcomes. Methods The will recruit participants that meet following inclusion criteria: (1) acuity between 0.4–1.0 logMAR better‐seeing eye, (2)...
Optimal temporal modulation of the stimulus can improve foveal contrast sensitivity. This study evaluates characteristics peripheral spatiotemporal sensitivity function in normal-sighted subjects. The purpose is to identify a that potentially remaining visual subjects with central field loss. High resolution cut-off for grating stimuli four frequencies (0, 5, 10 and 15 Hz drift) was first evaluated 10° nasal field. Resolution all then measured at spatial between 0.5 cycles per degree (cpd)...
Two experiments were carried out with volunteer subjects to test whether the subliminal viewing of emotive material induced anxiety and its associated bodily symptoms. In one experiment 24 looked at anxiety-inducing words presented singly through a tachistoscope under supraliminal or conditions, in other study 50 neutral an movie film similar conditions. Subliminality was insured first by reducing duration exposure second level illumination. The results showed that ratings significantly...
The purpose of this study was twofold: to verify a fast, clinically applicable method for determining off-axis refraction and assess the impact objectively obtained refractive correction on peripheral low-contrast visual acuity.We measured resolution acuity with Gabor patches both without at 20 degrees in nasal field 10 emmetropic subjects; using commercial open-field Hartmann-Shack wavefront sensor, COAS-HD VR aberrometer. Off-axis errors were calculated 5-mm circular pupil inscribed within...
AbstractAbstractNumerous new bridges were needed when the railway line from London to Holyhead in Wales was built 1840s. The project's chief engineer, Robert Stephenson, chose a cast iron girder design cross river Dee just outside Chester, and bridge finished November 1846. About six months later, on 24 May 1847, local train crossing final span one of girders failed suddenly, sending most crashing into below. Five lives lost. accident created national furore, Stephenson came close being...
