NAVIGATION: INTRODUCTION
How good are glaucoma patients during navigation in VR?
Hoste A.M., 2003
Collett, T. S., & Graham, P. (2004)
NAvigation: methods
Outcome Measures
- Travel Time
- Pointing Time
- Error distance
- Start from Point 0
- Move to Point 1
- Remember the position
- Move to Point 2 (second waypoint)
- Move to Point 3 (final waypoint)
- Point the position to be remembered

What is the effect of visual impairment on navigation performance?
VI: VISUAL ACUITY

VI: VISUAL FIELD
VF (MD)
VI: OCT

VI and TRAVEL TIME - VF Defect (MD)
Visual Field explains the variance in travel time
VI and POINTING TIME - VF DEFECT (MD)
Visual Field explains the variance in pointing time
VI and DISTANCE ERROR - VISUAL ACUITY (LOGMAR)
Visual Acuity explains the variance in distance error
- Insecurity in glaucoma patients makes them slower
- Visual Field deficits
- Accuracy improvement in the environment with daylight
- Trade-off between time and accuracy
- Visual acuity affects distance judgement
CONCLUSION
OUTLOOK
- Equiluminant Environment / Glaring Effect
- Broader Range Cohort
- Time Limit for Pointing Task
- Different Paths
