Description |
In patients suffering visual field (VF) loss after stroke or TBI, VRT for 6 months leads to visual field size increases (1,2). When VRT is discontinued, the VF-gains are stable over a period of at least 23 months (3). It is not known if long-term training may have added benefit and if visual field expansions are maintained for more than 23 months. |
