Neurologists frequently evaluate patients complaining of vision loss, especially when the patient has been examined by an ophthalmologist who has found no ocular disease. A significant proportion of patients presenting to the neurologist with visual complaints have nonorganic or functional visual loss. Although there are examination techniques that can

Dysflective cones: Visual function and cone reflectivity in long-term follow-up of acute bilateral foveolitis. [PDF]
PURPOSE:Confocal adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscope (AOSLO) images provide a sensitive measure of cone structure. However, the relationship between structural findings of diminished cone reflectivity and visual function is unclear.

Visual Acuity does not Moderate Effect Sizes of Higher-Level Cognitive Tasks. [PDF]
Background/study contextDeclining visual capacities in older adults have been posited as a driving force behind adult age differences in higher-order cognitive functions (e.g., the "common cause" hypothesis of Lindenberger & Baltes, 1994, Psychology ...

Retinal Development and Pathophysiology in Kcnj13 Knockout Mice
Purpose: We constructed and characterized knockout and conditional knockout mice for KCNJ13, encoding the inwardly rectifying K+ channel of the Kir superfamily Kir7.1, mutations in which cause both Snowflake Vitreoretinal Degeneration (SVD) and Retinitis
