Does 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 کاملHomonymous visual field defects and stroke in an older population.
PURPOSE The objective of the present study was to describe the prevalence of homonymous visual field defects in a defined older urban population and associations with self-reported stroke. METHODS Homonymous visual field defects were assessed from screening automated visual field tests of both eyes in 3654 persons aged > or =49 years who were participating in the Blue Mountains Eye Study. Thi...
متن کاملClinical treatment options for patients with homonymous visual field defects
The objective of this review is to evaluate treatments for homonymous visual field defects (HVFDs). We distinguish between three treatments: visual restoration training (VRT), optical aids, and compensatory training. VRT is both the most ambitious and controversial approach, aiming to restore portions of the lost visual field. While early studies suggested that VRT can reduce the visual field d...
متن کاملThe Effects of Compensatory Scanning Training on Mobility in Patients with Homonymous Visual Field Defects: A Randomized Controlled Trial
INTRODUCTION Homonymous visual field defects (HVFD) are a common consequence of postchiasmatic acquired brain injury and often lead to mobility-related difficulties. Different types of compensatory scanning training have been developed, aimed at decreasing consequences of the HVFD by changing visual scanning. AIM The aim of the present study is to examine the effects of a compensatory scannin...
