Systems and methods for improving visual discrimination”. US Patent No. 7,549,743, Awarded June 23rd, 2009. Inventors: Krystel R. Huxlin, Mary Hayhoe and Jeff Pelz. A system and method for retraining the visual system of a subject with damage to the striate and/or extrastriate visual cortex includes displaying a visual stimulus within a first location of an impaired visual field of the subject; and detecting the subject's perception of an attribute of the visual stimulus. The system and method are believed to effectively recruit undamaged higher level structures in the visual system to assume the functions ofthe damaged structures.
