Abstract:
A method and system for assessment and training of sensory/perceptual deficiencies is disclosed. The present invention includes: (i) an assessment module or system, (ii) training modules, (iii) a centralized database for storing assessment, training, and other data, and (iv) a feedback mechanism for parents, teachers and doctors that allows immediate input regarding either a particular person's data or a group (e.g., class) analysis. The training modules and database can be accessed via the internet or other network, thereby allowing training to occur at times and places that are convenient for the subject. Clinicians, researchers, and educators can conveniently access the database through the internet or another network connection. With convenient access to assessment and training data, clinicians can more easily treat their patients, and researchers can use the database as a resource to help determine the causes and best treatment protocols for sensory/perceptual deficiencies such as Visual Inefficiency Syndrome.
