An innovative eyesight rehabilitation package designed to maximise patient recovery from vision impairment caused by brain injury or stroke has received a $64,000 grant in the latest round of Australian Government innovation funding.
Federal Industry Minister Ian Macfarlane today announced Adelaide-based Neuro Vision Technology Pty Ltd (NVT) as one of nine companies to receive funding totaling $555,200 under the Commercialising Emerging Technologies (COMET) program. Nationally, more than $9 million was awarded for 20 innovative projects under the Commercial Ready and COMET programs.
"Neuro Vision Technology's project is an important development in the treatment of neurological vision impairment, which has tended to fall between services provided by medical specialists in the areas of blindness and brain injury." Mr Macfarlane said.
"Their package is designed to diagnose the extent of vision loss, develop an appropriate rehabilitation program to maximise vision recovery, and then re-train the residual vision to compensate for the vision impairment - similar to the way physiotherapists rehabilitate muscles and joints after injury."
The project consists of an integrated package of software, hardware and treatment protocols as well as a comprehensive training course for clinicians.
