Abstract
The present disclosure provides devices and methods for the modulation of retinal stimulation and/or retinal signal processing. Such methods may be useful for the diagnosis, treatment or prevention of a disease or disorder. The disclosed methods may comprise visual intervention by using lenses, prisms, mirrors, and/or filters (e.g., occluders) to alter the amount and/or direction of light on to the retina.
Claims4
A method for the treatment of a disease or disorder, said method comprising:
- a) diagnosing a subject as having a disease or disorder amenable to treatment by activation of non-visual retinal pathways;
- and
- b) modulating non-visual retinal pathways in the subject's eye using one or more frequencies of light directed to one or more discrete areas of the subject's retina to treat the disease or disorder.
