This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This research study uses virtual reality to understand how vision loss from stroke affects the way people drive and navigate. Researchers will have you perform a driving task in a realistic virtual environment while they track how your eyes move and how you steer. By comparing your performance to people without vision loss, scientists hope to better understand the strategies your brain develops to compensate for partial blindness.
Vision loss from stroke can seriously affect daily activities like driving. This study aims to understand exactly how the brain and eyes change after vision loss, which could help doctors develop better rehabilitation strategies and safety guidelines for people living with this condition.

You will visit the research facility and put on a virtual reality headset. You'll then perform a driving task where you steer a virtual vehicle through simulated roads, keeping it centered between two lines marking the road edges. Researchers will use cameras and computer analysis to track your eye movements and steering behavior as you complete this task. The study involves one main visit where you complete the driving test; the total time commitment and number of visits will be explained during the screening process.
