Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this research study is to better understand the impact of visual impairment caused by different eye diseases on the ability to perform daily activities and compare it to that in patients without eye diseases.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Subjects must be between the ages of 18 and 90 years old;
- •Both males and females will be included.

Exclusion Criteria
- •Subjects will be excluded if they present with any systemic conditions that in the opinion of the Principal Investigator may prevent them from completing the tests.
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Visual Impairment Measured by Visual Functioning Test
Time Frame: 4.5 years
The study team will evaluate visual impairment through a composite score of visual functioning test, ranging from 0 to 100, with lower scores indicating worse visual impairment.
Number of Eyes Showing Progression
Time Frame: 4.5 years
The number of eyes showing progression (expressed in percentage) will be compared between the home-based Brain-computer interface (BCI) testing and standard clinical testing (standard automated perimetry, SAP)
Time to Detect Progression Measured in Years
Time Frame: 4.5 years
The time to detect progression (years) will be compared between the home-based Brain-computer interface testing and standard clinical testing (standard automated perimetry).
Secondary Outcomes
- Standard Automated Perimetry Will be Assessed by the C-index(4.5 years)
- Patient-reported Quality of Life as Measured by the National Eye Institute (NEI) Visual Function Questionnaire (VFQ) 25(4.5 years)
