We measured monocular visual function—high-contrast visual acuity (HC-VA), central visual fields (mean sensitivity, MS), colour vision (desaturated Panel D-15), Pelli–Robson (P–R), and cone- and ...

Using data generated from patients and mice with genetic mutation for the disorder Usher syndrome, researchers documented the natural history of vision impairment in patients and identified the cell ...

A growing body of evidence suggests that when older people’s brains have to work harder to see, declines in language, memory, attention and more could follow. By Jane E. Brody Medical practice tends ...

New research suggests a lack of access to vision care services has contributed to racial, ethnic and socioeconomic disparities in visual function among Black, Hispanic and poorer adolescents. Findings ...

The eye's light-sensing retina taps different circuits depending on whether it is generating image-forming vision or carrying out a non-vision function such as regulating pupil size or sleep/wake ...

In an age of increasing screen time and longer lifespans, protecting our vision has never been more important. While most people value their eyesight above all other senses, many unknowingly engage in ...
