Vision screening and therapy for stroke-related visual field loss
Part of Brain & nervous system, Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests whether a screening program can find and treat vision problems caused by a stroke. The goal is to help you recover more of your visual field (the area you can see).
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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 the brain can improve vision after damage caused by stroke, tumor, or injury. It may help people with vision loss from a brain lesion find new ways to see better.
This study tests a vision training program to help people who lost part of their eyesight after a stroke. The goal is to see if it can improve your ability to drive safely.
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 looks at how the brain might still 'see' things even when part of your visual field is lost after a stroke. It may help doctors understand and predict your remaining visual abilities.
This study tests a new treatment that uses focused ultrasound and virtual reality to help restore vision in people who have lost sight in part of their visual field after a stroke. It may help improve daily vision and quality of life.
