Vision through Healthy Aging Eyes
As life expectancy grows, so too will the number of people adversely affected by age. Although it is acknowledged that many conditions and diseases are associated with age, this mini-review will present a current update of the various visual changes that

Modeling Reactive Oxygen Species-Induced Axonal Loss in Leber Hereditary Optic Neuropathy
Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is a rare syndrome that results in vision loss. A necessary but not sufficient condition for its onset is the existence of known mitochondrial DNA mutations that affect complex I biomolecular structure.

Injuries to the Immature Optic Radiation Show Correlated Thinning of the Macular Ganglion Cell Layer
Injuries to the immature optic radiation (OR) are associated with thinning of the retinal nerve fiber layer and corresponding visual field (VF) defects.

White-headed Vultures Trigonoceps occipitalis show visual field characteristics of hunting raptors [PDF]
The visual fields of Aegypiinae vultures have been shown to be adapted primarily to meet two key perceptual challenges of their obligate carrion-feeding behaviour: scanning the ground and preventing the sun’s image falling upon the retina.

Gaze-contingent flicker pupil perimetry detects scotomas in patients with cerebral visual impairments or glaucoma [PDF]
The pupillary light reflex is weaker for stimuli presented inside as compared to outside absolute scotomas. Pupillograph perimetry could thus be an objective measure of impaired visual processing.

Visual Dysfunction in Posterior Cortical Atrophy
Posterior cortical atrophy (PCA) is a syndromic diagnosis. It is characterized by progressive impairment of higher (cortical) visual function with imaging evidence of degeneration affecting the occipital, parietal, and posterior temporal lobes ...
