Novel approaches to understanding peripheral vision in patients with central vision loss [ 2015 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr William Harrison (Principal investigator)

Brief description The aim of my research is to develop novel interventions that enhance the peripheral vision of patients with central vision loss, and to investigate the neural correlates of visual perception in peripheral vision in typical adults. My research will inform rehabilitation strategies that optimise the visual function of patients with partial blindness, and provide a more thorough understanding of the underlying neural mechanisms that reduce the quality of peripheral vision.
