Fellow Eye Deficits in Strabismic Amblyopia
Grouping and Perception in Different Types of Amblyopia
Texture Segmentation in Human Infants and Adults with Amblyopia
This project study the neural mechanisms of texture and motion based segmentation as basic inputs to object processing. This project used frequency-domain non-linear analysis of high-density EEG recordings in human infants. We also used fMRI-informed EEG source-imaging combined with psychophysics to study texture segmentation processing and the role of attention in normal adults and in adults with amblyopia.
Motion Integration in infants and amblyopia
This project studies the integration of local estimates of motion direction and orientation into global patterns. Integration mechanisms were studied in human infants, normal adults and in adults with amblyopia.
Visual Cortical Function in Very Low Birth Weight Infants
Blind Arduino Project
The Blind Arduino Project grew out of a community effort led by Dr. Miele in late 2015 to better understand barriers faced by blind people wanting to participate in the vibrant global culture of DIY hardware prototyping.
Arduino is an inexpensive, open-source electronics platform used by everyone from young hobbyists to high-tech developers to build computerized devices integrating sensors, motors, displays, wireless communications, and a host of other tools. Arduino is used in schools to teach children basic principles of design and computer science, in industry to quickly and inexpensively…
Functional Assessment - Visual Fields
Functional Assessment - Visual Acuity
Functional Assessment - Reading
Difficulty reading is the most common complaint of low vision patients. It is the Activity of Daily Living that is most closely related to visual acuity, but involves many additional factors beyond.
Print SIZE provides an assessment (visual acuity) of "How the EYE functions".
Reading SPEED provides a convenient assessment of “How the PERSON functions.”
PDF Reading acuity (2005)
The IVA system (see below) contains a module to facilitate reading speed measurements.
