## Aims This project aims to develop innovative rehabilitation approaches for amblyopia (lazy eye) by targeting higher-level brain functions, including neural plasticity and visual processing pathways. ## Background Traditional amblyopia treatments focus on patching the stronger eye, but success rates in older children and adults are limited. Recent research shows that targeting brain plasticity can improve outcomes even in mature visual systems. ## Work to be Done The project will develop and test novel perceptual learning protocols, combine them with non-invasive brain stimulation techniques, and create personalized rehabilitation programs based on individual neural response patterns. ## Benefits This research offers (1) improved vision recovery in adults with amblyopia, (2) non-invasive treatment options with minimal side effects, (3) personalized rehabilitation based on brain response, and (4) shorter treatment duration compared to traditional methods. ## Impact This approach has the potential to transform amblyopia treatment, making effective rehabilitation possible for patients of all ages who previously had limited options for vision improvement.
