Low Vision Blindness

Investigators aim to assess the feasibility of delivering two augmentation interventions, Meditation and a Health Enhancement Program, for potentially enhancing the quality of life and mental health of Irreversible Age-Related Vision Loss (IARVL) patients and/or their caregivers.

This research is aimed to address one of the big gaps in the current vision rehabilitation protocols for people with profound visual impairment by evaluating a multisensory approach. There are a growing number of clinical trials that recruit people with end-stage eye diseases and the rehabilitation plan following various treatments is not clear. It is important to address this in order to maximize the efficacy of such treatments and to improve the quality of life in people with profound visual impairment.
