Auditory-visual localization in hemianopia.
OBJECTIVE Beyond visual field defects, patients with hemianopia have been suggested to perceive horizontal visual space in a distorted manner. However, the pattern of these distortions remained debatable. The aim of this study was to estimate the geometry of the visual representation of space in hemianopia using an auditory marker. METHOD Patients with pure left or right hemianopia (without n...
متن کاملPassive Auditory Stimulation Improves Vision in Hemianopia
UNLABELLED Techniques employed in rehabilitation of visual field disorders such as hemianopia are usually based on either visual or audio-visual stimulation and patients have to perform a training task. Here we present results from a completely different, novel approach that was based on passive unimodal auditory stimulation. Ten patients with either left or right-sided pure hemianopia (without...
متن کاملVisual and Auditory Complications during Deferasirox Therapy in Beta-thalassemia
Background: Deferasirox is an oral iron chelator widely used to treat iron overload in patients with transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia. This study investigated the prevalence of visual and auditory complications caused by deferasirox. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study included 156 patients aged less than 18 years with transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia and deferasirox iron...
متن کاملAuditory spatial localization: Developmental delay in children with visual impairments.
For individuals with visual impairments, auditory spatial localization is one of the most important features to navigate in the environment. Many works suggest that blind adults show similar or even enhanced performance for localization of auditory cues compared to sighted adults (Collignon, Voss, Lassonde, & Lepore, 2009). To date, the investigation of auditory spatial localization in children...
متن کاملCross-modal localization in hemianopia: new insights on multisensory integration.
The superior colliculus (SC) has been implicated in the mediation of residual visual function in hemianopic patients, and has been shown to be capable of using multiple sensory cues to facilitate its localization functions. The aim of the present study was to examine the possibility that the SC could effect covert visual processes, via multisensory integration of auditory and visual stimuli in ...
