Vision Recovery
Together, we can renew hope
Loss of vision from a stroke, traumatic brain injury, or the onset of diabetes—impacts everyday life for many. With desire to fully recovery—to see better—there is a demand to discover new ways to regain lost vision. At the Burke Neurological Institute, we work across neurological conditions and abilities—Motor, Pain & Sensory, Cognitive, and Vision—to address symptoms as well as the cause.
A breakthrough for one person to restore ability could be a breakthrough for many with, no matter how or why it originated.
"We're trying to measure vision in children with neurological impairments who lack the ability to communicate or understand. It’s really remarkable to see the first time a child is able to convey to us they can see, which will in turn help us improve their visual function with therapies.” — Dr. Glen Prusky
You have an important role to play in research
Participating in scientific research takes courage and bravery. That is why our participants are at the center of discovery. We treat symptoms in carefully monitored clinical trials that apply the latest neuroscience, drug therapies, treatments and technological devices. We go beyond current medicine and rehabilitation to test-drive innovations for prevention and recovery through neurological repair and neuro-restoration.
