  4. 13. Assessment of visual contrast function and effects of citicoline treatment in children with visual impairment

    Författare :Aamir Siddiqui; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Purpose: The present studies address the questions if visual dysfunction in severely visually impaired children can be measured with contrast tests high or low, how it relates to their visual abilities assessed with behavioural methods and if visual function in these children can be improved by neuro-pharmacological treatment. Methods: Twenty children aged 6-16 years from the Al-Maktoom school for visually impaired children in Islamabad, Pakistan were included in the first study and 22 children aged 6-14 years in the second study.
