The Building BlocksThe Building Blocks
 Gabor Patch
 Neuronal Lateral Interactions
 Brain (neural) plasticity
 Perceptual Learning
Gabor PatchGabor Patch
“Gabor Patches” 1
are widely used in the field of
visual neuroscience. Having been shown to
efficiently describe the shape of receptive fields of
neurons in the primary visual cortex they thus
represent the most effective stimulation.2

involves the cooperative activity of
many neurons

Neural PlasticityNeural Plasticity
 Neural plasticity - relates to the ability of the
nervous system to adapt to changed conditions,
in acquiring new skills.
The new acquired skills are retained for years
 Evidence for Neural plasticity - Visual acuity
improvement in adults with amblyopia has been
reported after prolonged patching1 or when the better
eye’s vision has been lost2 or degraded, by age
related macular degeneration3, cataract4 or trauma5

Perceptual Learning &Perceptual Learning &
Neural PlasticityNeural Plasticity
 The phenomenon -
Perception can be modified by experience.
Visual performance improves with practice
 The technique -
Repetitive performance of controlled and specific
visual tasks
 Perceptual learning has been evidenced in a variety
of visual tasks and was found to persist for years
without further practice1
 Clinical observations2
and experimental evidence3
indicate the presence of residual neural plasticity
well after the critical period.

Enhance Neuronal Lateral Interactions using Perceptual Learning Technique
 Repetitive performance of specific visual tasks efficiently stimulates the specific neurons and
effectively promotes spatial interactions among these neurons
 Enhanced spatial interactions reduce noise level in neuronal activity and increase signal strength, therefore
improve neuronal efficiency inducing improvement of Contrast Sensitivity Function (CSF)
 Improved CSF induce improvement in Visual Acuity

Treatment ImplementationTreatment Implementation
Subjects are presented with a series of visual
stimulations using Gabor patches with the
following parameters dynamically controlled:
 Numbers of Gabors
 Spatial arrangement of the Gabors
 Global and local orientation
 Spatial Frequency/size
 Contrast
 Exposure duration

Visual Perception Task – ExampleVisual Perception Task – Example
First Display Second Display
 
 
 Measures the contrast threshold of a Gabor target
(the middle Gabor) with the presence of flankers
(the peripheral Gabors)
 The patient is exposed to two short displays in
succession, in a random order; the patient
identifies which display contains three Gabors
Visual Perception Task – ExampleVisual Perception Task – Example
 If the first display, the patient should click the left mouse button (1); if the
second display, the patient should click the right mouse button (2)
 The system provides the patient with feedback when provided with a an
incorrect response
 The task is repeated and a staircase is applied until the patient reaches their
visual threshold level

Having been shown to efficiently describe the shape of receptive fields of neurons in the primary visual cortex they thus represent the most effective stimulation.2 1.

  • 23. Neural PlasticityNeural Plasticity  Neural plasticity - relates to the ability of the nervous system to adapt to changed conditions, in acquiring new skills. The new acquired skills are retained for years  Evidence for Neural plasticity - Visual acuity improvement in adults with amblyopia has been reported after prolonged patching1 or when the better eye’s vision has been lost2 or degraded, by age related macular degeneration3, cataract4 or trauma5 1.

  • 24. Perceptual Learning &Perceptual Learning & Neural PlasticityNeural Plasticity  The phenomenon - Perception can be modified by experience. Visual performance improves with practice  The technique - Repetitive performance of controlled and specific visual tasks  Perceptual learning has been evidenced in a variety of visual tasks and was found to persist for years without further practice1  Clinical observations2 and experimental evidence3 indicate the presence of residual neural plasticity well after the critical period. 1. Gilbert, (1998); Sagi & Tanne, (1994). 2. Moseley, Fielder (2001) 3. Polat, Sagi(1994); Levi, Polat (1996); Levi, Polat, Hu (1997)
  • 25. Lateral Masking –Lateral Masking – How Does it WorkHow Does it Work?? Enhance Neuronal Lateral Interactions using Perceptual Learning Technique  Repetitive performance of specific visual tasks efficiently stimulates the specific neurons and effectively promotes spatial interactions among these neurons  Enhanced spatial interactions reduce noise level in neuronal activity and increase signal strength, therefore improve neuronal efficiency inducing improvement of Contrast Sensitivity Function (CSF)  Improved CSF induce improvement in Visual Acuity

Editor's Notes

  1. Left Image: Individual visual cortex neurons respond to precise location, orientation, and spatial frequency of a presenting image Right Image: Visual Processing: Neuronal Interactions Neuronal interactions result in excitation (facilitation) or inhibition (suppression)
  2. Neural Plasticity Relates to the ability of the nervous system to adapt to changed conditions, in acquiring new skills. The new required skills are retained for years Clinical observations and experimental evidence indicate the presence of residual neural plasticity Personalized Treatment In order to achieve optimal results, the treatment is specifically tailored to patients’ deficiencies / inefficiencies and visual abilities Treatment sequence is unique to each patient
  3. Mean 2.4 Lines Improvement in the Treatment Group Mean 0.0 Lines Improvement in the Control Group Minor Regression 1 Year After Treatment End – 85% of the Mean Improvement was Maintained
  4. Contrast Sensitivity Improved at All Frequencies Contrast Sensitivity Improved in average more than 100% After Treatment Contrast Sensitivity Improved into the Normal Range Contrast Sensitivity Maintained 1 Year After Treatment End (Even Slightly Better Compare to Treatment End)
  5. Mean 2.4 Lines Improvement in the Treatment Group Mean 0.0 Lines Improvement in the Control Group Minor Regression 1 Year After Treatment End – 85% of the Mean Improvement was Maintained
  6. Contrast Sensitivity Improved at All Frequencies Contrast Sensitivity Improved in average more than 100% After Treatment Contrast Sensitivity Improved into the Normal Range Contrast Sensitivity Maintained 1 Year After Treatment End (Even Slightly Better Compare to Treatment End)
  7. Mean 2.4 Lines Improvement in the Treatment Group Mean 0.0 Lines Improvement in the Control Group Minor Regression 1 Year After Treatment End – 85% of the Mean Improvement was Maintained
  8. This graph shows 47 improving eyes. (In LogMar). The left side of the graph represents patients with lower VA at baseline. You can see that patient, who started with lower VA improved more than the patient with better VA on the right side of the graph.
  9. Mean 2.1 Lines Improvement in the Treatment Group Minor Regression 1 Year After Treatment End – 90% of the Mean Improvement was Maintained
  10. Contrast Sensitivity Improved at All Frequencies Contrast Sensitivity Improved in average approximately 100% After Treatment Contrast Sensitivity Improved Well Within the Normal Range Contrast Sensitivity Maintained 1 Year After Treatment End
  11. Mean 1.6 Lines Improvement in the Presbyopia Treatment Group
  12. Contrast Sensitivity Improved at All Frequencies in the Presbyopia Treatment Group After Treatment Contrast Sensitivity Improved into the Normal Range
  13. Mean 1.1 Lines Improvement in the Treatment Group
  14. Contrast Sensitivity Improved at All Frequencies in the Treatment Group
  15. Mean 2.2 Lines Improvement in the Presbyopia Treatment Group
  16. Contrast Sensitivity Improved at All Frequencies in the Presbyopia Treatment Group After Treatment Contrast Sensitivity Improved into the Normal Range
  17. Mean 1.8 Lines Improvement in the Treatment Group Mean 0.2 Lines Improvement in the Control Group
  18. 50% of the Treated Patients are Doing the Treatment at Home and 50% in the Clinic The Control Patients are Only Doing Visual Exams without NeuroVision Treatment
  19. Mean 2.6 Lines Improvement in the Low Myopia Treatment Group Mean 2.2 Lines Improvement in the Post Refractive Surgery Treatment Group Minor Regression 1 Year After Treatment End in the Low Myopia Treatment Group – 85% of the Mean Improvement was Maintained
  20. Contrast Sensitivity Improved at All Frequencies in Both Groups Contrast Sensitivity Improved in average more than 100% in Both Groups After Treatment Contrast Sensitivity Improved Well Within the Normal Range in Both Groups Contrast Sensitivity Maintained 1 Year After Treatment End, with Minor Regression
