Research subject

Cerebral Visual Impairment is now the number one cause of pediatric visual impairment in the United States.

In this project, we investigate how the brain adapts to visual impairment. We investigate visuohaptic skill using eye-tracking technology. The findings will help to guide the timing of treatment.

Our goal is to help children with Cerebra Vision Impairment get a better outcome and the education they deserve.
