To study neuronal and ophthalmological characteristics of a newly detected clinical entity called slow vision which hampers visual perception and attention of the affected patients.
To investigate if a vitamin B12 deficiency has a higher prevalence in LHON patients, during the acute phase of visual loss, then in a normal population.
The primary objective of this pilot study is to assess the prevalence of visual field defects in formerly eclamptic women. The secondary objective is to compare the vision-related quality of life between formerly eclamptic and normotensive parous…
The goal of this study is to collect large cohorts of patients with various multifactorial eye diseases. The study cohorts will be used to identify genetic risk factors for these diseases.
To determine straylight values in patients with several types of contact lenses and a differing lenght of wear of contact lenses. This study will lead to objective documentation of loss of function among contact lens wearers and and will lead to…
The project consists of three concrete goals:1)Compare symptoms and patterns of fatigue of visually impaired adults with a control group of adults without a visualimpairment.2)Develop an intervention aimed at treating symptoms of fatigue in visually…
