The effects of amblyopia on simulated driving behavior in an urban setting

Key Points

• Altered driving behavior in individuals with amblyopia indicates potential safety risks on urban roads.
• Visual acuity significantly impacts gross maneuvers and situational awareness during simulated driving.
• Analysis of simulated driving performance in urban settings shows cognitive load increases in those with amblyopia.
• Findings highlight the need for further investigation into the driving capabilities of individuals with visual impairments.
