Summary

Patients who develop macular diseases have several clinical complications,such as central vision loss, the central scotoma of the visual field, the decrease of reading speed and fixation stability. At present, there is still no satisfactory effect in the prevention and treatment of advanced macular disease. A new rehabitation strategy named microperimetric biofeedback training has been shown to be effective in improving patients' visual appearance, but there is no consensus regarding the optimal methodology and standard of practice. Therefore, we designed a prospective clinical study to verify the effectiveness of MBFT and to determine an optimal plan.

PROCEDURE

microperimetric biofeedback training

Microperimetry biofeedback training is a noninvasive stragegy to develop a new trained retinal locus or strength the spontaneous preferred retinal locus to get better visual performances.The rationale of MBFT consists in reeducating visual system to a new visual condition, promoting retina-brain transmission, and further enhancing synaptic plasticity and neural capacity by acoustic biofeedback or structured light stimulus biofeedback.
