[visionlist] Call for papers for Vision Research Special Issue "Impact of Traumatic Brain Injury on Vision"

[David Troilo]

Vision Research – Special Issue
Impact of Traumatic Brain Injury on Vision
Vision Research is seeking contributions for an upcoming special issue entitled ‘Impact of Traumatic Brain Injury on Vision’. Traumatic brain injury (TBI), defined as brain damage caused by an external physical force or a rapid movement, can cause significant visual disabilities. Even mild TBI (concussion), has been reported to disrupt vision. Loss of visual sensitivity, photophobia, accommodative dysfunction and convergence insufficiency are some of the reported signs and symptoms. This special issue seeks original research articles and critical reviews to provide a broad scope of current research from experimental models to clinical studies to understand the visual sequelae related to TBI diagnosis and management.
