An Automated Method for Creating Simulated Distorted Images in Amblyopic Vision

Abstract

Spatial distortions in amblyopic vision can be captured by subjective reports or by a point-by-point mapping of the central part of the visual field. In this study, we developed a series of algorithms that provide a fine-grain mapping of the amblyopic percept. These algorithms can be applied to any real-world image. The images created based on these algorithms can be compared with the subjective percept of each amblyope.
