A pilot randomized controlled trial comparing effectiveness of prism glasses, visual search training and standard care in hemianopia
ConclusionsNo significant change occurred for area of visual field area across arms over follow‐up. Visual search training had significant improvement in vision‐related quality of life. Prism therapy produced adverse events in 69%. Visual search training results warrant further investigation.

Rehabilitation in chronic spatial neglect strengthens resting state connectivity
ConclusionIntense VR training that improved left sided awareness in chronic stroke patients also increased sporadic interhemispheric functional connectivity within the DAN. Specifically, a region responsible for saccadic eye movement to the left became more integrated with the left posterior parietal cortex. These results highlight a mechanism that should be exploited in the training of patients with chronic visuospatial neglect.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
