Training to improve vision after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests a training program that uses multiple senses, like sight and sound, to help people with vision loss after a stroke. It aims to improve the ability to see on the affected side.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests whether special computer-based visual exercises can help people whose vision was damaged by a stroke. You would do the exercises at home for several months.
This study uses visual training exercises you can do at home on your computer to try to restore some vision lost after a stroke. It also involves a few days of testing and brain scans (MRI) at our lab to see how the training works.
This study tests whether a computer-based visual training program can help people who have lost vision after a stroke to their brain's visual center. You must have been in a prior study with the same team.
This study tests whether vision rehabilitation exercises done at home, guided by brain imaging, can help people regain vision after a stroke, brain injury, or tumor. Participants will use brain scans to personalize their therapy.
This trial tests a special rehabilitation program that uses multiple senses (like sound and touch) to help people regain vision lost due to brain damage. It may help you see better by training your brain to use other senses.
This trial tests whether guided “biofeedback” training can help people with hemianopia (a vision field loss) improve how they use their remaining vision. You may be asked to complete vision testing and practice exercises while receiving feedback based on your responses.
