Our doctors have worked with stroke and traumatic brain injury patients for over 25 years. A hemianopsia is a loss of half of vision in both eyes to either the right or left side. Thsi loss can be very devastating to patients as it can cause them difficulty in mobility including running into objects and tripping over things. Additionally, they are constantly being startled by others showing up from their blind side. This site discusses all the aspects of hemianopsia and treatment options available. Our doctors use special prismatic eyewear to shift the image into the patient's remaining visual field to help the patient get a better understanding of their position and whereabouts.
