Task performance in ocular conditions
Many ocular conditions affect vision and visual performance, but less consideration is given to task performance and the impact of these conditions on tasks and activities of daily living. This project would investigate the effect of different ocular conditions, and their different treatment options, on a range of different tasks that affect daily living. The quantitative study would suit a candidate with a clinical background in orthoptics, optometry or ophthalmology.
