The common theme of all the figurative senses is of a gap not in visual function but in the mind's perception, cognition, or world view.

Phototherapeutic keratectomy ( PTK ) using [ Excimer laser ] can restore and preserve useful visual function for a significant period of time in patients with anterior corneal dystrophies.
33.
These findings suggest that seasonal light cycles experienced during retinal development and maturation have lasting influences on retinal and visual function, likely through developmental programming of retinal dopamine.
34.
Flicker fusion thresholds decline towards the periphery, but do that at a lower rate than other visual functions; so the periphery has a relative advantage at noticing flicker.
35.
Two main veteran cohorts with mild TBI and without TBI will be studied, and we will analyse visual function, eye movement and pupil recordings, and OCT imagining.
36.
The primary visual cortex is a region in the occipital lobe that can be altered by neuroplasticity to create new neuronal pathways around damaged areas to help regain lost visual functions.
37.
Generally, the severity of the condition by adolescence reflects the overall level of visual function to be expected throughout most of the patient s adult life ( Votruba, 1998 ).
38.
Health consequences for iron deficiency in young children include increased perinatal mortality, delayed mental and physical development, negative behavioral consequences, reduced auditory and visual function, and impaired physical performance.
39.
Apperceptive agnosia is failure of object recognition even when the basic visual functions ( acuity, color, motion ) and other mental processing, such as language and intelligence, are normal.
40.
Thus, the available spatial resolution of retinal implants needs to increase by a factor of 10, while remaining small enough to implant, to restore sufficient visual function for those tasks.
