>From the information I have found so far, most of the research on MS is being done by physicians.  However, perceptual problems of any kind are frequently studied by cognitive psychologists.  For more information on Multiple Sclerosis and it's effects on vision, you may want to look at the National Multiple Sclerosis Society Webpage (http://www.nmss.org).

 I have a question about depth perception and multiple sclerosis. I watched a 
> movie the other day and in it they said one of the symptoms of multiple 
> sclerosis was loosing depth perception and having accidents (bumping into 
> things, falling downstairs, etc.) because of this. How does multiple 
> sclerosis affect depth perception and is this something that cognitive 
> psychologists study?
