Device and computer program for training a preferred retinal locus of fixation

The disclosure relates to a method and a respective computer program with a program code to execute the method. In particular, disclosed is a method for training a preferred retinal locus of fixation (efficient PRL) for a person having an eye with a field of vision comprising an area of partially diminished or entirely degenerated visual acuity. The method includes: a) determining an inefficient retinal region outside the area in the field of vision of the eye of the person and a more efficient retinal region for the specific vision task outside the area in the field of vision of the eye of the person and b) inducing a preferred retinal locus of fixation (efficient PRL) for a vision task outside the inefficient retinal region but in the more efficient retinal region. In addition, the disclosure relates to a device for performing the method.

Light control devices and methods for regional variation of visual information and sampling

Exemplary light control devices and methods provide a regional variation of visual information and sampling (“V-VIS”) of an ocular field of view that improves or stabilizes vision, ameliorates a visual symptom, reduces the rate of vision loss, or reduces the progression of an ophthalmic or neurologic condition, disease, injury or disorder. The V-VIS devices and methods generate a moving aperture effect anterior to a retina that samples and delivers to the retina environmental light from an ocular field of view at a sampling rate between 50 hertz and 50 kilohertz. Certain of these V-VIS devices and methods may be combined with augmented or virtual reality, vision measurement, vision monitoring, or other therapies including, but not limited to, pharmacological, gene, retinal replacement and stem cell therapies.

PROJECTION OF DEFOCUSED IMAGES ON THE PERIPHERAL RETINA TO TREAT REFRACTIVE ERROR

An apparatus to treat refractive error of the eye comprises one or more optics configured to project stimuli comprising out of focus images onto the peripheral retina outside the macula. While the stimuli can be configured in many ways, in some embodiments the stimuli are arranged to decrease interference with central vison such as macular vision. The stimuli can be out of focus images may comprise an amount of defocus within a range from about 3 Diopters (“D”) to about 6 D. In some embodiments, the brightness of the stimuli is greater than a brightness of background illumination by an appropriate amount such as at least 3 times the background brightness. In some embodiments, each of a plurality of stimuli comprises a spatial frequency distribution with an amplitude profile having spatial frequencies within a range from about range of 1×10.sup.−1 to 2.5×10.sup.1 cycles per degree.
