VR visual training to improve driving after brain injury or stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Eyes & vision, Heart & circulation, Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests whether immersive virtual reality (VR) visual stimulation training can improve your visual perception and driving performance after a stroke or traumatic brain injury (TBI). If you’re able to follow the VR and computer instructions, it may help you practice seeing and responding in a safer, controlled way.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
