Plain-Language Summary: Vision symptoms commonly experienced after a concussion are associated with reduced occupational performance and satisfaction and can have a considerable impact on recovery. Occupational therapy assessment for clients with concussion should include screening for vision difficulties.PMID:38422432 | DOI:10.5014/ajot.2024.050353 (Source: The American Journal of Occupational Therapy)
