Summary

This study tested new methods to measure and train eye movements in 21 people with macular degeneration and severe vision loss. Participants practiced using a different part of their retina to see, and researchers tracked changes in vision and eye movement over 14 weeks. The goal was to understand how the brain adapts after central vision loss and find better ways to help people with low vision.
