The Effects of Regular Eye-training With a Mobile Device on Adult Patients With AMD
The Effects of Regular Eye-training With a Mobile Device on Adult Patients With AMD
Data collection and observation of changes within AMD patients performing visual training on
 mobile devices
In the presented study a training-therapy in patients with dry AMD war evaluated. The main
 focus was on remote visibility and thus better handling of daily activities.

 Therapy with high-contrast administration is used for amblyopia in childhood. Furthermore,
 simulation therapy is used in hemianopsia in the adult age, in which case the lesion is
 usually not located in the eye.

 This stimulating therapy for children and adult patients led to the hypothesis that this
 treatment could also improve AMD's situation. The entire visual procedure also shows the
 possibility of change even in adult patients.

 The presented study investigates if regular training with a device that provides a moving
 grating-stimulus, the "Medical Eye Trainer" (MET), can improve the subjective perception of
 visual performance during typical activities of daily living. The aims of the study were not
 to show improvement of reading vision nor to show changes in the retinal structure.
Inclusion Criteria:
