Movement detection thresholds reveal proprioceptive impairments in developmental dyslexia
Developmental dyslexia is associated with vision and hearing impairments. Whether these impairments are causes or comorbidities is controversial. Because both senses are heavily involved in reading, cognitive theories argue that sensory impairments are ...

The right visual field advantage and the optimal viewing position effect: On the relation between foveal and parafoveal word recognition [PDF]
Recent developments on the optimal viewing position (OVP) effect suggest that it may be caused by the same factors that underlie the right visual field advantage in word recognition.

Nystagmus Does Not Limit Reading Ability in Albinism. [PDF]
Subjects with albinism usually suffer from nystagmus and reduced visual acuity, which may impair reading performance. The contribution of nystagmus to decreased reading ability is not known. Low vision and nystagmus may have an additive effect.

Sensory Compensation in Children Following Vision Loss after Trauma and Disease [PDF]
Sensory compensation or sensory substitution occurs when a sense organ, such as the eye, is lost due to trauma or disease. Individuals often experience phantom limb sensation or pain but research increasingly points towards some individuals developing a ...

Predicting individual contrast sensitivity functions from acuity and letter contrast sensitivity measurements. [PDF]
Contrast sensitivity (CS) is widely used as a measure of visual function in both basic research and clinical evaluation. There is conflicting evidence on the extent to which measuring the full contrast sensitivity function (CSF) offers more functionally ...
