TL;DR: Perceived contrast was measured under natural viewing conditions with the use of contrast-matching and magnitude-estimation paradigms and found to be independent of luminance over a range of luminances from 37.5 down to 8 cd/m2, which implies an important limitation on the neural processing of contrast.

TL;DR: A novel concept of vision‐multiplexing using augmented‐vision head‐mounted display systems to address vision loss has been developed and central visibility is enhanced with 1:1 scale edge images, while still enabling the wide field of the unimpaired peripheral vision to be maintained.

TL;DR: Testing with static television images revealed that visually impaired patients could distinguish the enhanced images and preferred them over the original images (and degraded images), and most patients preferred a moderate level of wideband enhancement, since they preferred natural-looking images and rejected visible artifacts of the enhancement.

TL;DR: Glare can be reduced significantly with the use of a contact lens with a dark iris, and Implanting the KPro in a patient whose fellow eye has normal or near normal vision does not seem to improve visual function.

TL;DR: Inadequate scanning resulted in blind-side detection failures, which might place HH drivers at increased risk for collisions at intersections and scanning training tailored to specific problem areas identified in this study might be beneficial.
