Purpose: Adult brain plasticity, although possible, is often difficult to elicit. Training regimens
in adults can produce specific improvements on the trained task without leading to general …

Plasticity appears to be a ubiquitous property of nervous systems, regardless of
developmental stage or complexity. In the visual system of higher mammals, perceptual …

Recent studies have demonstrated that training adult amblyopes in simple visual tasks leads
to significant improvements of their spatial vision. One critical question is: How much can …

Amblyopia is a cortically based visual disorder caused by disruption of vision during a
critical early developmental period. It is often thought to be a largely intractable problem in …

Amblyopia is a developmental abnormality that results in physiological alterations in the
visual cortex and impairs form vision. It is often successfully treated by patching the sound …

Background: To compare the effects of perceptual learning or patching on improving visual
acuity and contrast sensitivity in patients with anisometropic amblyopia. Methods: Patients …

PURPOSE: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of neural vision enhancement technology
(NVC, NeuroVision, Inc.) to improve visual acuity and contrast sensitivity function in eyes …

Amblyopia is a reduction of visual functions that cannot be attributed directly to the effect of
any structural abnormality of the eye or the posterior visual pathway. It is caused by …

Several studies have shown that after multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation visual
function improves gradually over a period of several months. To accelerate this learning …

We assessed whether or not the sensitivity for identifying luminance-defined and contrast-
defined letters improved with training in a group of amblyopic observers who have passed …
