The natural preferred retinal locus in patients with macular disease [PDF]
This study aimed to explore the characteristics of the natural Preferred Retinal Locus (PRL) in eyes with different macular lesions. In this retrospective study, 37 patients (39 eyes) suffered from macular diseases (MD) were included, and the following ...

Characterizing the Preferred Retinal Locus and Fixation Stability in Diabetic Macular Ischemia: A One-Year Study [PDF]
Eyes with maculopathy usually have poor fixation stability (FS) and develop a new preferred retinal locus (PRL). The exact FS and PRL have never been studied in diabetic macular ischemia (DMI).

Consistency of preferred retinal locus across tasks and participants trained with a simulated scotoma. [PDF]
After loss of central vision following retinal pathologies such as macular degeneration (MD), patients often adopt compensatory strategies including developing a “preferred retinal locus” (PRL) to replace the fovea in tasks involving fixation.

What Is a Preferred Retinal Locus?
This review examines the concept of the preferred retinal locus (PRL) in patients with macular diseases. Considering monocular and binocular viewing, we (a) explain how to identify the PRL and discuss the pitfalls associated with its measurement, (b ...

The Preferred Retinal Locus for Reading in Central Vision Loss. [PDF]
Purpose People with central vision loss (CVL) often adopt a preferred retinal locus (PRL) for fixation outside the region of central loss. However, it is unknown how often the fixational PRL (fPRL) is used in reading. Here, we assessed if the reading PRL

The Preferred Retinal Locus Used to Watch Videos. [PDF]
Purpose Eccentric viewing is a common strategy used by people with central vision loss (CVL) to direct the eye such that the image falls onto functioning peripheral retina, known as the preferred retinal locus (PRL). It has been long acknowledged that we
