Post-chiasmatic damage to the visual system leads to homonymous visual field defects
(HVDs), which can severely interfere with daily life activities. Visual Restitution Training …

Purpose: Vision restoration training (VRT) in hemianopia patients leads to visual field
enlargements, but the mechanisms of this vision restoration are not known. To investigate …

Abstract Changes in neuronal activity have been described in patients with hemianopia
following ischemic lesions of the visual cortex. This reorganization may facilitate …

Whether rehabilitation after stroke profits from an early start is difficult to establish as the
contributions of spontaneous recovery and treatment are difficult to tease apart. Here, we …

Cerebral blindness is a loss of vision as a result of postchiasmatic damage to the visual
pathways. Parts of the lost visual field can be restored through training. However, the …

Background Damage to the primary visual cortex (V1) due to stroke often results in
permanent loss of sight affecting one side of the visual field (homonymous hemianopia) …

Stroke damage to the primary visual cortex (V1) causes a loss of vision known as
hemianopia or cortically-induced blindness. While perimetric visual field improvements can …

Loss of vision across large parts of the visual field is a common and devastating
complication of cerebral strokes. In the clinic, this loss is quantified by measuring the …

Background: Stroke is the most common cause of homonymous visual field defects (HVFDs).
Yet, there is no standard protocol for composing a rehabilitation program. Objective: In this …

Objective Hemianopia is a visual field defect following post-chiasmatic damage. We now
applied functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in hemianopic patients before and …
