Management of Functional Vision Disorders. [PDF]
The purpose of this review is to summarize current approaches to management of functional vision disorder (FVD).Several retrospective studies of FVD in both adults and children have shed light on the range of outcomes and the prevalence of psychosocial stressors among FVD patients. While the first line of treatment for FVD is reassurance and education,

Intermixing the <i>OPN1LW</i> and <i>OPN1MW</i> Genes Disrupts the Exonic Splicing Code Causing an Array of Vision Disorders. [PDF]
Light absorption by photopigment molecules expressed in the photoreceptors in the retina is the first step in seeing. Two types of photoreceptors in the human retina are responsible for image formation: rods, and cones.

Developmental disorders of vision [PDF]
This review of developmental disorders of vision focuses on only a few of the many disorders that disrupt visual development. Given the enormity of the human visual system in the primate brain and complexity of visual development, however, there are likely hundreds or thousands of types of disorders affecting high-level vision.
