Research Study for Adults with Normal or Amblyopic Vision

You are invited to participate in a research study conducted by Dr. Erwin Wong of the University of Missouri - St. Louis, College of Optometry. In the study, you will be asked to look at a series of patterns on a computer monitor and make simple perceptual judgments.
If you are 18–60 years of age, have

1. amblyopia (“lazy eye”), or
2. normal vision in both eyes and are interested in participating in the study, please contact:

Dr. Erwin Wong (Principal Investigator) at 314-516-6516.

If selected for the study you will receive $10.00 per hour of participation. Experiment sessions last 1–2 hours and about 20 hours are needed to complete the study. All sessions will take place in 450 Marillac Hall. Days and times are flexible.


Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) Research Study for Adults with Normal or Amblyopic Vision

You are invited to participate in a research study conducted by Dr. Erwin Wong of the University of Missouri – St. Louis and Washington University. In the study, you will be asked to make simple visual judgments during a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) brain scan.

Screenings for vision and fMRI eligibility will take place in 450 Marillac Hall, University of Missouri – St. Louis, College of Optometry. FMRI scans will take place at the Neuro-Imaging Center, Washington University School of Medicine.

If you are age 18–60 and have
1. amblyopia (“lazy eye”) or
2. normal vision in both eyes
and are interested in participating in the study, please contact:

Dr. Erwin Wong (Principal Investigator) at 314-516-6516.

Screenings for vision and fRMI eligibility will take approximately 30 minutes and you will not be paid for this time. If selected for the study you will receive $25.00 per hour of participation in fMRI experiments. Experiment sessions last 2–3 hours and approximately 4 sessions are needed to complete the study.
