Optometry & Vision Science Special Issue: Advances in Vision Impairment Research
 
Optometry & Vision Science (OVS) plans a Special Issue to provide a showcase for latest discoveries related to low vision (or vision impairment) research to inform clinicians, researchers, industrial partners, patients, policy makers and other stakeholders about the latest research and advances, and to promote and inspire additional thinking on this topic.  OVS invites original articles and review papers that highlight research and clinical advances, including, but not limited to:
 
·       low vision rehabilitation services

·       new technologies in improving vision (for patients with visual impairment), e.g., prisms and novel optical corrections, digital image enhancement

·       visual perception, including object and scene recognition, and other higher-level vision

·       development of new assistive technology and its application in relation to indoor/outdoor navigation, reading etc.

·       application of artificial intelligence for low vision

·       accessibility in low vision

·       reading, mobility, or driving with low vision

·       prosthetic vision or ultra-low vision

·       retinal/brain imaging studies related to low vision

·       epidemiology and quality of life assessment, including patient reported outcome measures in low vision

·       multisensory research in relation to low vision (e.g. interaction between auditory and vision, or tactile and vision)
