Interventions
DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Life Space Questionnaire

This 9-item questionnaire is interested in finding out how much a person gets out and about and the spatial extent of the person's typical life space, i.e., what is the usual range of places in which the person engages in activities within the designated time frame.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Low Luminance Questionnaire

This 32-item questionnaire is interested in finding out problems that involve vision under different lighting conditions or feelings that people have about your vision under different lighting conditions.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Contrast sensitivity under dim illumination

Participants will be presented with visual targets of different contrast under dim illumination and asked to report when they see the target.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Visual field under dim illumination (MAIA)

Sensitivity in the central visual area will be assessed under dim illumination

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Macular Pigment Optical Density (MPOD)

Participants will be asked to look at a fixation target and the density of their macular pigment will be assessed.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Dark Adaptation

After adapting to a dark environment, participants will be exposed a bright flask of light. the time needed for them to recover their sensitivity will be measured.
