Evaluating 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 ...
2023No 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 ...
2022Individual differences in visual (mis)perception: a multivariate statistical approach
Common factors are omnipresent in everyday life, e.g., people who do well in one cognitive test are likely to perform well in other cognitive tests as well, and vice versa. In vision, however, there seems to be a multitude of specific factors rather than a ...
EPFL2021How do visual skills relate to action video game performance?
Michael Herzog, Aline Françoise Cretenoud, Oh-Hyeon Choung, Arthur Barakat
It has been claimed that video gamers possess increased perceptual and cognitive skills compared to non-video gamers. Here, we examined to which extent gaming performance in CS:GO (Counter-Strike: Global Offensive) correlates with visual performance.We tes ...
2021About common factors in vision
Michael Herzog, Aline Françoise Cretenoud, Simona Adele Garobbio, Maya Roinishvili, Lukasz Grzeczkowski, Ophélie Gladys Favrod, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz, Dario Alejandro Gordillo Lopez
Often, we intuitively assume that there are common factors in life. For example, we test people with a visual acuity test to determine whether they are allowed to drive a car or not- with the implicit assumption that the acuity test is representative of vi ...
SAGE Publishing2021Comparison Between the eyeWatch Device and the Ahmed Valve in Refractory Glaucoma
Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, André Mermoud, Sylvain Roy, Adan Villamarin, Stéphane Bigler, Constantinos Stergiopulos
Purpose: To assess the efficacy and safety of a glaucoma procedure to control intraocular pressure (IOP) using the adjustable eyeWatch glaucoma drainage device compared with Ahmed glaucoma valve (AGV) in refractory glaucoma. Patients and Methods: Monocentr ...
LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS2020Factors underlying visual illusions are illusion-specific but not feature-specific
Michael Herzog, Aline Françoise Cretenoud, Gregory Francis, Lukasz Grzeczkowski
Common factors are ubiquitous. For example, there is a common factor, g, for intelligence. In vision, there is much weaker evidence for such common factors. For example, visual illusion magnitudes correlate only weakly with each other. Here, we investigate ...
2019Validation of a Foldable and Photovoltaic Wide-Field Epiretinal Prosthesis
Inspired by intra ocular lenses, we designed a foldable and wide-field epiretinal prosthesis capable of achieving a wireless photovoltaic stimulation of retinal ganglion cells with a remarkable increase in its retinal coverage and in the number of stimulat ...
2018Preservation of visual function in an animal model of retinal degeneration using CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing
Diego Ghezzi, Paola Vagni, Tommaso Marchetti
Aims: Inherited Retinal Disorders represent a difficult target for gene therapy. This study exploits the possibility of using CRISPR/Cas9-based gene editing in photoreceptor progenitors to prevent cell death. We performed all the experiments on Rd10 mice, ...
