Arm position does not attenuate visual loss in patients with homonymous field deficits.
One of the most common and debilitating consequences of stroke is the loss of vision in the contralesional visual field. Clinicians typically regard this loss as irreversible and attempts at visual restoration have delivered only small and unreliable improvements. However, Schendel and Robertson [Schendel, K., & Robertson, L. C. (2004). Reaching out to see: Arm position can attenuate human visu...
متن کاملOn-road driving with moderate visual field loss.
PURPOSE We examined the relationship between visual field extent and driving performance in an open, on-road environment using a detailed scoring method that assessed the quality of specific skills for a range of maneuvers. The purpose was to determine which maneuvers and skills should be included in future, larger scale investigations of the effect of peripheral field loss on driving performan...
متن کاملHomonymous Visual Field Loss and Its Impact on Visual Exploration: A Supermarket Study.
PURPOSE Homonymous visual field defects (HVFDs) may critically interfere with quality of life. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of HVFDs on a supermarket search task and to investigate the influence of visual search on task performance. METHODS Ten patients with HVFDs (four with a right-sided [HR] and six with a left-sided defect [HL]), and 10 healthy-sighted, sex-, and age-matc...
متن کاملDoes visual restitution training change absolute homonymous visual field defects? A fundus controlled study.
AIM To examine whether visual restitution training (VRT) is able to change absolute homonymous field defect, assessed with fundus controlled microperimetry, in patients with hemianopia. METHODS 17 patients with stable homonymous visual field defects before and after a 6 month VRT period were investigated with a specialised microperimetric method using a scanning laser ophthalmoscope (SLO). Fi...
متن کاملHazard Detection by Drivers with Paracentral Homonymous Field Loss: A Small Case Series.
INTRODUCTION Stroke frequently causes homonymous visual field loss. We previously found in a driving simulator that patients with complete homonymous hemianopia had difficulty detecting potential hazards on the side of the field loss. Here we measured the effects of limited paracentral homonymous field loss on detection performance. METHODS Three patients with paracentral homonymous scotomas,...
