Summary

The BRIGHT (Behavioral Rehabilitation Through Image-Guided Home-based Training) study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of image-guided, home-based perceptual training at improving visual performance in individuals with visual field loss. Using a prospective, crossover design, BRIGHT combines visual behavioral testing, neuroimaging, and a home-based intervention. It aims to 1) identify neural pathways that support training-induced visual plasticity; and 2) compare the efficacy of different types of visual training delivered in a home-based setting.

5. Eligible for MRI based on standard safety screening.

Exclusion Criteria:
