Summary

Data collection and observation of changes within AMD patients performing visual training on mobile devices

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Medical-Eye-Trainer (MET)

In order to provide a high contrast, dynamic visual stimulus to the patients, we developed an app that allowed the patients to regularly train with this stimulus. The app runs on Android (version 4.2 or later). The display of the screen is divided into 4 rows. In each row, a pattern of black and white squares is moving in one direction. The directions in subsequent rows are opposite to each other. Through the movement in the opposite direction a changing pattern is achieved in vertical and horizontal extension, the pattern alternates between continuous beams and a checkered pattern. The speed of the display on the monitor is 2 cm per second. In a comfortable viewing distance (ca. 40 cm), this leads to an angular velocity of approximately 3°/sec.
