A virtual reality platform to simulate orientation and mobility training for the visually impaired

Fabiana Sofia Ricci et al.

Summary: Blindness and low vision are urgent and increasingly common public health concerns. Orientation and mobility (O&M) training is a profession that teaches safe travel skills to visually impaired individuals. To address challenges in O&M education, a virtual reality platform is proposed to support trainers in evaluating and refining practices, providing a safe and realistic environment for trainees to learn new techniques, and increasing public awareness for visual impairment.

Functional evaluation in inherited retinal disease

Malena Daich Varela et al.

Summary: Functional assessments play a crucial role in the clinical evaluation of patients with inherited retinal diseases, with a significant impact on various intervention approaches. These assessments help diagnose and monitor specific genotypes, but also come with limitations and challenges, requiring exploration of more effective analytical methods.

Vision at the limits: Absolute threshold, visual function, and outcomes in clinical trials

Matthew P. Simunovic et al.

Summary: The study of individual differences in perception at absolute threshold has a rich history and is gaining increasing interest in measuring visual function at the absolute limit of vision. There has been a recent recapitulation of tests and the commercialization of devices capable of assessing absolute threshold and dark adaptation.

The Use of the Term Virtual Reality in Post-Stroke Rehabilitation: A Scoping Review and Commentary

Hanne Huygelier et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the use of virtual reality in post-stroke rehabilitation, finding that most review papers did not clearly define VR and did not focus on specific systems. By developing a new data-driven taxonomy, different systems can be better distinguished, facilitating communication among researchers and clinicians.

Assessing Photoreceptor Status in Retinal Dystrophies: From High-Resolution Imaging to Functional Vision

Jose-Alain Sahel et al.

Summary: The study found a weak correlation between visual acuity and retinal structural variables, while functional impairment was associated with reduction in anatomical markers of photoreceptor structure and increased width of autofluorescent ring. Flood-illumination adaptive optics imaging revealed various phenotypes, and mobility assessment under different lighting conditions showed correlations with visual field, visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, and dark adaptation.

Inherited retinal diseases are the most common cause of blindness in the working-age population in Australia

Rachael C. Heath Jeffery et al.

Summary: This study found that inherited retinal diseases are a common cause of blindness across all age groups, particularly prevalent among the working-age population. These findings suggest the need for continued funding to provide low-vision services and develop treatments for these conditions.

A Virtual Reality Orientation and Mobility Test for Inherited Retinal Degenerations: Testing a Proof-of-Concept After Gene Therapy

Tomas S. Aleman et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates the potential of using a virtual reality orientation and mobility test to assess the impact of visual dysfunction and improvement following treatments in patients with inherited retinal degenerations. The VR-O&M system proved useful, particularly in challenging scenarios such as pediatric patients with severe IRDs.
