PURPOSE: Luminance contrast is the fundamental building block of human spatial vision. Therefore contrast sensitivity, the reciprocal of contrast threshold required for target detection, has been a barometer of human visual function. Although retinal...

PURPOSE: To investigate whether a correction based on a Humphrey field analyzer (HFA) 24-2/30-2 visual field (VF) can improve the prediction performance of a deep learning model to predict the HFA 10-2 VF test from macular optical coherence tomograph...
PURPOSE: To compare change over time in eye-specific optical coherence tomography (OCT) retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL)-based region-of-interest (ROI) maps developed using unsupervised deep-learning auto-encoders (DL-AE) to circumpapillary RNFL (cpR...

PURPOSE: To develop a deep learning model to estimate the visual field (VF) from spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and swept-source OCT (SS-OCT) and to compare the performance between them.
IMPORTANCE: Conventional segmentation of the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) is prone to errors that may affect the accuracy of spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) scans in detecting glaucomatous damage.
IMPORTANCE: Although the central visual field (VF) in end-stage glaucoma may substantially vary among patients, structure-function studies and quality-of-life assessments are impeded by the lack of appropriate characterization of end-stage VF loss.
IMPORTANCE: Techniques that properly identify patients in whom ocular hypertension (OHTN) is likely to progress to open-angle glaucoma can assist clinicians with deciding on the frequency of monitoring and the potential benefit of early treatment.

PURPOSE: To use supervised machine learning to predict visual function from retinal structure in retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and apply these estimates to CEP290- and NPHP5-associated Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) to determine the potential for funct...
Particular deep artificial neural networks (ANNs) are today's most accurate models of the primate brain's ventral visual stream. Using an ANN-driven image synthesis method, we found that luminous power patterns (i.e., images) can be applied to primat...
