Predictors of Driving Performance and Successful Mobility - Rehabilitation in Patients With Medical Eye Condition

Completed · Phase 2

Conditions studied: Low Vision

In brief

There are two diseases in particular that may have serious consequences for driving and mobility due to their potentially severe impact on visual function: glaucoma and diabetic neuropathy. In this project we will develop predictive models of driving for these patients and will train them to use low-vision aids to improve driving mobility. We will determine how best to train patients with hemianopic field loss due to cerebral vascular accidents and identify predictors of long-term success in the use of low-vision aids.
