In the last few years, stroke ranked as the second most common cause of death and is the third most significant condition affecting disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) worldwide. Being the most prevalent and quality of life impacting post-stroke symptom ...
EPFL2024Diving into the heterogeneity of the visual system
Using batteries of visual tests, most studies have found that there are only weak correlations between performance levels of tests in healthy young adults. Factor analysis has confirmed these results. This means that a participant excelling in one test may ...
EPFL2024Weak correlations between visual abilities in healthy older adults, despite long-term performance stability
Michael Herzog, Simona Adele Garobbio
Using batteries of visual tests, most studies have found that there are only weak correlations between the performance levels of the tests. Factor analysis has confirmed these results. This means that a participant excelling in one test may rank low in ano ...
2024Evaluating contrast sensitivity in early and intermediate age-related Macular Degeneration with the Quick Contrast Sensitivity Function
Michael Herzog, Simona Adele Garobbio
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe, validate, and compare the contrast sensitivity functions (CSFs) acquired with the novel quick CSF (qCSF) method from patients with early and intermediate age-related macular degeneration (eAMD and iAMD) a ...
2023The role of the visual field size in artificial vision
Objective. Artificial vision has been and still is the subject of intense research. The ultimate goal is to help blind people in their daily life. Approaches to artificial vision, including visual prostheses and optogenetics, have strongly focused on resto ...
IOP Publishing Ltd2023Influence of macular pigment on the sensitivity to discomfort glare from daylight
Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Sneha Jain
Understanding the factors that influence the human perception of glare is necessary to properly address glare risks in buildings and achieve comfortable visual environments, especially in the workplace. Yet large inter-individual variabilities in glare per ...
2023IS THERE AN EFFECT OF MACULAR PIGMENT DENSITY ON DISCOMFORT GLARE IN INDOOR DAYLIGHT CONDITIONS?
Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Caroline Karmann, Sneha Jain
Discomfort glare from daylight can lower productivity and hinder effective use of daylight in buildings. Existing glare prediction models have limitations in accounting for the large inter-individual differences, mainly due to unknown physiological factors ...
International Commission on Illumination2023No Common Factor Underlying Decline of Visual Abilities in Mild Cognitive Impairment
Michael Herzog, Simona Adele Garobbio
Introduction Recent work has shown an association between cognitive and visual impairments and two main theories were advanced, namely the sensory deprivation and the common cause theories. Most studies considered only basic visual functions such as visual ...
2022Is there an association between cognitive and visual decline?
Michael Herzog, Simona Adele Garobbio
Cognitive and visual abilities decline with age. Recently, it has been suggested that the risk to suffer from dementia is associated with decreased visual acuity. Two theories, the sensory deprivation theory (stating that visual impairments cause cognitive ...
2022Three-dimensional multilayer concentric bipolar electrodes restrict spatial activation in optic nerve stimulation
Diego Ghezzi, Eleonora Borda, Ricardo Camilo Moreira, Marta Jole Ildelfonsa Airaghi Leccardi, Vivien Gaillet, Elodie Geneviève Zollinger
Objective. Intraneural nerve interfaces often operate in a monopolar configuration with a common and distant ground electrode. This configuration leads to a wide spreading of the electric field. Therefore, this approach is suboptimal for intraneural nerve ...
