Influence of Socially Used Drugs on Vision and Vision Performance

Abstract

The chief objective of the research was to use the experience and results obtained from the previous contract project to conduct a well-organized, broad-based, three-year investigative study of those sensory, motor, and physiological aspects of vision that may be influenced by socially-used drugs. Alcohol was chosen as the primary drug of inquiry with marijuana serving as the major reference drug, and with stimulants and depressants being additional reference drugs later in the study; polydrug effects would be investigated during the third year of the study.
