New eye training offers hope for stroke survivors struggling with vision

NCT ID NCT01730560

Summary

This study tested a new rehabilitation method for people who have lost part of their vision after a stroke or brain injury. The training aimed to improve their ability to search and see things in their blind spot by using automatic eye movements, rather than requiring intense concentration. Researchers compared this new approach to a standard method to see if it was more effective at helping with everyday visual tasks like reading and finding objects.
