Simulating scotoma (photoreceptor loss). The macular degeneration mask simulated in the mode: a) is the original image; b) is the foveated image with fovea focusing to the upper right part of the image; c) is the mask output that simulates retinal deterioration in the macula. Black pixels represent regions of photoreceptor loss; white pixels correspond to responsive regions of the normal photoreceptor mosaic. In this example, the black pixels cover a total of 100% of the macula region; d) is the degenerated image.
