Fluorescence Microscopy-Based Quantitation of GLUT4 Translocation: High Throughput or High Content?
(2020)
Novel myopia control spectacle lenses induce peripheral contrast reduction via optical diffusion. It is suggested, that the contrast reduction alters retinal processes in the low-level neural circuity, leading to an inhibition of eye growth. The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate the influence of full-field contrast reduction on low-level neural processing of the retina, described by the edge contrast sensitivity.
This research project is of particular importance since there is a lack of adequate data on pediatric eye and vision disorders in Russia, particularly in the Volga region. In the present study, we estimate the prevalence of vision disorders among school-aged children who participated in a vision screening program in Samara, Russia. The relationship between learning-related visual dysfunctions is explored in depth, such to illustrate the connection between vision and learning. Hence, a key feature in this study is the inclusion of binocular vision disorders among the conditions tested.
