Provided are a device, method and program for searching and training a preferred retinal locus of a patient with visual field damage. The method comprises the steps of: providing first stimulation to a patient by means of a stimulation providing device linked to the device; receiving, from the patient, a response with respect to the first stimulation by means of the stimulation providing device; if the response is correct, analyzing the movement of the patient's head corresponding to the first stimulation; specifying a preferred retinal locus on the basis of the analysis result; performing training associated with the patient's central fixation; and performing training associated with reinforcement of the patient's preferred retinal locus.

The present invention relates to a Pde6b-deficient animal model of retinal degeneration produced by engineered endonucleases, and a method for producing the same. In the animal model of retinal degeneration according to the present invention, only a specific target gene can be removed using engineered endonucleases, so that mutagenesis can be stably achieved. In addition, it is possible to produce a congenital animal model through genetic manipulation at the embryonic stage rather than through acquired factors, which allows for production of an animal model that uniformly exhibits symptoms of the disease in question without being influenced by other factors.
