NCT ID NCT05780931
Summary
This VA study aims to develop new rehabilitation methods to help veterans with age-related macular degeneration see better. Researchers will teach 20 veterans to use their hands as 'seeing eyes' to recognize objects and text. The study will measure both how accurately participants recognize objects and how their brain activity changes during this training using MRI scans.
