    About This Project

    Many people will experience a decline in vision at some point in their life. For many people, this may be easily corrected with glasses, but other types of vision loss are due to diseases that cannot be treated. Vision is a combination of the signal from the eye and how the brain deals with that signal. This project aims to understand how the brain understands a change in signal when you have eye disease. We hope to use this information in future to develop new low vision treatments.
