Dynamic vision defines the ability to identify visual targets when there is relative motion between subject and object, so it is very important in completing daily tasks, including sports, driving and so on. In addition, the factors affecting dynamic vision and static vision and their neural conduction paths are also different. The instinctive factors that affect dynamic vision include movement speed, movement pattern and eye movements. Instead of the two-stream pathway in a static visual system, visual motion information flows from primary visual cortical direction-selective neurons into the middle-temporal MT/V5 area. Thus, dynamic vision is probably an independent indicator in ocular, neurological and mental disorders diagnosis and evaluation and occupational specific evaluation, including athletes and drivers.
Commonly used dynamic vision tests (DVT) can be classified into static-optotypes DVT, moving-optotypes DVT and motion perception behavior tests. Static-optotypes DVT is mainly applied to evaluate vestibule-ocular reflex. Moving-optotypes DVT demonstrates optotypes mechanically or with a computer monitor and is used to evaluate dynamic visual function. The motion perception behavior test assesses the brain’s perception of moving visual targets. Currently, the static vision-based test is widely applied, including visual acuity, refraction, and contrast sensitivity. However, due to a lack of standardized test paradigms and understanding of its mechanisms, the application of DVT in the clinical environment is restricted. To further promote the standardized application of DVT, the relationship between dynamic vision and disease signs or symptoms and its mechanism should be elucidated.
This research topic aims to collect original works and summarize the literature on the entire spectrum regarding DCT and their mechanism in clinical and occupational-specific settings. We want to promote the application the DVT in more diseases for diagnosis and evaluation and occupational selection. The specified topics include:
-Dynamic vision test technology and paradigm.
-Applying dynamic vision tests in diagnosing, evaluating and treating ocular, neurological and mental diseases
-Applying dynamic vision test in occupational-specific evaluation
-The mechanisms of dynamic vision abnormality and conduction in physiological and disease states.
