Summary

When high-detail vision is lost due to a retinal disease such as macular degeneration, people see poorly, and have difficulty with eye movements (oculo-motor control). This preliminary study will investigate a potential behavioral intervention that may improve the ability to perform vision-related daily activities such as reading, recognising faces and watching television. The intervention involves many sessions that will train visual perception and eye movements over a period of a few months. Participants will have either lost central vision in both eyes or have normal vision (control group).
