DEVELOP A GENERAL PURPOSE INFANT VISION TESTER

MANY FORMS OF VISUAL DYSFUNCTIONS ARE BELIEVED TO HAVE THEIR GENESIS EARLY IN LIFE; HOWEVER, EARLY DETECTION AND CORRECTION OF THESE PROBLEMS CAN PERMIT OPTIONAL VISUAL FUNCTIONING TO DEVELPP. WE WILL DEVELOP AN INNOVATIVE GENERAL PURPOSE INFANT VISION TESTER WHICH HAS THE FOLLOWING CAPACITY: 1) FEATURES; ELECTROPHYSIOLOGY TESTING, 2) BENEFITS: OBJECTIVE DATA FROM SUBJECT VISUAL EVOKE POTENTIAL. OUR METHOD WILL BE TO COMPARE OUR DATA WITH PUBLISHED REPORTS FROM "LABPRATORY SETTINGS". THE LONG-TERM OBJECTIVES ARE TO ESTABLISH NEW TECHNIQUES FOR EVALUATING AND DIAGNOSING DISORDERS IN INFANT VISION USING A SINGLE SYSTEM.
