Implication

Narrative review explores visual assessment and rehabilitation methods for post-stroke patients, highlighting implications for recovery.

Key Points

  • This review evaluates current methods and technologies for assessing and rehabilitating visual field impairments after stroke.
  • Reviewed traditional visual field screening methods like static and kinetic perimetry.
  • Discussed visual rehabilitation approaches including visual substitution therapy and eye movement-based therapy.
  • Analyzed emerging technologies such as wearable virtual reality headsets for visual field intervention.
  • Visual substitution therapies like prisms expand visual fields but face issues with adherence.
  • Eye movement training enhances scanning efficiency and functional performance.
  • Visual restitution techniques show mixed results, while virtual reality may enhance screening and rehabilitation options.
