Retinitis Pigmentosa Foundation Fighting Blindness
What is Retinitis Pigmentosa?
Retinitis Pigmentosa is the name given to a group of diseases which affect the retina of the eye.
The retina, located in the back of the eye, is the part of the eye that acts like the film in a camera. It is a delicate layer of cells which picks up the picture and transmits it to the brain - where "seeing" actually occurs. In RP, the retina begins to degenerate, which causes vision to diminish.
One of the earliest symptoms of RP is difficulty seeing at night or in dimly lit places (night blindness). Later there is a reduction in side (peripheral) vision. The symptoms of RP generally increase over the years.
It is known that certain cells in the retina, known as rods and cones, die in RP. The cause of cell death however, is not known at present, but research provides us with the opportunity to seek solutions.
RP bodies throughout the world support research in a number of medical centres and hospitals internationally to find the cause, prevention and treatment of retinal degenerative diseases like Retinitis Pigmentosa, Usher syndrome and Macular Degeneration. Some of these centres also provide a clinical evaluation of the patient's RP or other retinal degenerations. They may also perform special tests requested by the patient's own ophthalmologist.
Through the efforts of RP organisations in many countries, the number of highly qualified investigative scientists working full time on RP and related diseases continues to grow. Research efforts into these types of retinal diseases are difficult because there is no opportunity to safely biopsy - that is, remove and examine living retinal tissue under a microscope - the delicate eye.

The Strange Symptoms of Blindness to Motion
The patient had great difficulty pouring coffee into a cup. She could clearly see the cup's shape, color, and position on the table, she told her doctor. She was able to pour the coffee from the pot. But the column of fluid flowing from the spout appeared frozen, like a waterfall turned to ice. She could not see its motion. So the coffee would rise in the cup and spill over the sides. More dangerous problems arose when she went outdoors. She could not cross a street, for instance, because the motion of cars was invisible to her: a car was up the street and then upon her, without ever seeming to occupy the intervening space. Even people milling through a room made her feel very uneasy, she complained to Josef Zihl, a neuropsychologist who saw her at the Max Planck Institute for Psychiatry in Munich, Germany, in 1980, because "the people were suddenly here or there but I did not see them moving." The woman's rare motion blindness resulted from a stroke that damaged selected areas of her brain.

Color Test One Look at the pictures below. Do you see a puzzle piece in the picture on the left? If you do, you have normal color vision. The picture on the right will give you an idea of how the color picture would look to someone that is totally color blind. It is the same picture using shades of grey. Without the colors as a reference the image in the picture disappears. It is very rare to be totally color blind. In fact, the most common form of color blindness is red/green color blindness. Approximately nine percent of the population are affected. Those that suffer from red/green color blindness would see the color image above as either all red or all green. The color they see depends on which rods they are missing. Green Deficient Red Deficient Color Test Two If you have normal color vision, here is another interesting test. First stare at the color picture below and then move the mouse pointer on top to switch the image to the black and white version. If you look carefully you will notice the image will briefly be in the opposite color! This is because you wore-out some of your cones and are now seeing the image with whatever cones are still operating.

, but it affects only .4 percent of women. The fact that color blindness is so much more prevalent among men implies that, like hemophilia, it is carried on the X chromosome, of which men have only one copy. (As in hemophilia, women are protected because they have two X chromosomes; a normal gene on one chromosome can often make up for a defective gene on the other.) Nathans himself is not color-blind. Before using his own DNA, he thoroughly tested his color vision to ensure that it was normal. Nevertheless, one of his initial findings presented a puzzle: Lying head to tail along his X chromosome were not just the two genes for the red and green receptors, but also an extra copy of the green receptor gene. Here was the explanation for the prevalence of color blindness, he realized. Because the DNA sequences of the red and green receptor genes are so similar, and because they lie head to tail, it is easy for mistakes to occur during the development of egg and sperm, as genetic material is replicated and exchanged between chromosomes.

90. Trachoma
Brief, technical clinical definition. Leading cause of blindness worldwide, and afflicts over 400 million people; preventable with adequate diet, proper sanitation, and education.
http://www.spedex.com/resource/documents/veb/trachoma.html
TRACHOMA
DESCRIPTION: A form of bilateral keratoconjunctivitis which causes corneal scarring; at its onset, it resembles conjunctivitis with symptoms of tearing, photophobia, pain, swelling of the eyelids, and superior keratitis; as it passes through four stages, the conjunctival tissues become follicular, heal, and finally scar. Lacrimal glands and ducts are often affected as well; the upper lid may turn inward and the lashes then abrade the cornea; corneal ulceration results, becomes infected, and ultimately scars. When scarring is extensive, blindness results. The disease is spread by contact; flies and gnats may also transmit it. TREATMENT: If treated early (with antibiotics, usually tetracycline drugs or sulfonamides), the prognosis is excellent. Untreated, it can cause blindness. IMPLICATIONS: This disease is one the earliest recorded eye diseases; it was identified as early as the 27th century B.C. It is the leading cause of blindness worldwide, and afflicts over 400 million people (primarily in underdeveloped countries in Africa, the Middle East, and Asia). It is preventable with adequate diet, proper sanitation, and education. It is rare in the United States. Back to Contents or Back to SpEdEx Home

1. Motivation for the Research
What is the relationship between attention and perception? How much, if anything, of our visual world do we perceive when we are not attending to it? Are there only some kinds of things we see when we are not attending? If there are, do they fall into particular categories? Do we see them because they have captured our attention or because our perception of them is independent of our attention? Most people have the impression that they simply see what is there and do so merely by opening their eyes and looking. Of course, we may look more closely at some things than at others, which is what we ordinarily mean by "paying attention," but it probably seems to many people as if we see nearly everything in our field of view. There is an opposite experience that also raises questions about the relation between perception and attention. When we are intently awaiting something, we often see and hear things that are not there. For example, many people have had the experience of hearing footsteps or seeing someone who is anxiously awaited even though theperson is not there, and there are no footsteps. On these occasions, it is as if our intense expectation and riveted attention create or at least distort a perceptual object. Here, instead of not seeing (or hearing) what is there when we are distracted, we are seeing (or hearing) what is not there, or perhaps more accurately, misperceiving what may actually be there, but which we are anxiously awaiting. Both experiences appear to implicate attention in the act of perceiving. This kind of experience was eloquently described by William James.

Legal blindness is visual acuity
of not greater than 20/200 in the better eye with best correction or a visual field of less than 20 degrees. Legal blindness can mean tunnel vision, no central vision, cloudy or extremely blurred vision , seeing just shadows, or no vision at all. What does 20/200 mean? A person with normal visual acuity can see an object clearly, at 200 feet ; a legally blind person must be 20 feet or closer to see the same object. Many different types of visual impairments are caused by conditions such as diabetes, retinitis pigmentosa, cataracts, and macular degeneration. Blind people succeed in the workplace because of access technology, special fixtures and equipment that compensate for various types of visual loss. Low vision devices are also instrumental in maximizing residual vision, not only for work, but also for other aspects of life. Some low vision solutions involve only a hand-held magnifier, the introduction of increased lighting or an adjustment of the background against which a person is working.

PHILADELPHIA, April 14, 1996 In a companion study to the National Eye Institute's clinical investigation of cryotherapy to prevent blindness in children with severe retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), Ophthalmologists at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia have determined that children with severe ROP who received the surgical intervention had an approximate 10 percent loss of peripheral or side vision in their treated eye. This pilot study is the first long-term study of its kind and appears in the April issue of Archives of Ophthalmology. "We followed 8 preterm patients who received cryotherapy at approximately 12 weeks of age," said Graham E. Quinn, M.D., Associate Surgeon, Division of Ophthalmology at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. All of the babies enrolled received cryotherapy in one eye, leaving the other eye to serve as a control. Dr. Quinn and his associates at Philadelphia's Children's Hospital and Wills Eye Hospital then followed the patients, testing their vision on an annual basis. "Today, the children are able to see and read letters," said Dr. Quinn. "However, in a test of the child's ability to detect an object off to the side while the child looked straight ahead, we found a deficit in peripheral vision of approximately 10 percent," Dr. Quinn said.

Rice University Suppose you are designing a web page where one particular link among many is likely to be the most used by visitors. For example, perhaps you have a web page for sending text messages to pagers. "Send a message" is likely to be a very popular link, and it is important that all users notice it. On a travel reservations page, the designer wants to be sure that users notice the link for "make a reservation." Web guidelines usually recommend that to make an important item stand out, it should be near the top, and be large and/or brightly colored. For example, the Ameritech web design guidelines state: "In general, the larger an item is, the greater its perceived visual importance and likelihood of attracting attention. Make sure that items of greatest importance are easy to see, and clearly distinguished from other items. (Detweiler & Omanson, 1996)" Although this seems like perfectly good design advice, we have reason to believe it may not be. In a usability test of a corporate intranet, we were interested in finding out whether the novice users could make their way easily from the main home page to a lower-level page on computer training courses. We gave the users the task of finding information about Internet courses. The training page contained the seemingly highly-salient link shown below.

Severity of Colorblindness Varies
Colorblindness is the inability to distinguish hues that are seen as different by people with normal color vision. There are several types of colorblindness and the severity of the condition varies from individual to individual. Sometimes known as color-vision deficiency, it affects one of every 12 men and one of every 230 women. There are an estimated nine million colorblind people in the US. It is more common in Caucasians than other ethnic groups. The degree of color-vision deficiency varies from nearly normal to severely impaired color vision. The two most common varieties of colorblindness are red-green and blue-yellow. Red-green color-vision deficiencies are nearly 1000 times more common than blue-yellow ones. People with normal color vision can distinguish more than 100 "hues." Colors may vary in brightness or saturation but still be of the same hue; pastel green and dark green are of the same hue, for example. On the other hand, people with the most severe forms of red-green colorblindness, called "dichromats," see only two hues. These hues may best be described by what people with normal color vision call blue and yellow.
