Efficacy and predictors of recovery of function after eye movement training in 296 hemianopic patients
Cortex Jan 30, 2020
Sahraie A, et al. - Researchers conducted the study for analyzing the effectiveness and predictors of recovery of function after eye movement training in 296 hemianopic individuals. They analyzed variables such as age, gender, side of blindness, age at the onset of brain injury, and time elapsed between the brain injury and start of therapy as predictors of both objective and subjective measures of improvements. The authors discovered that patients improved in search time had less errors and improved disability scores in 87% (255/294), 80% (236/294) and 66% (167/254) of all cases respectively. According to findings, age was an important indicator of improved search errors with greater gains for older patients. The time between brain injury and intervention negatively affected search reaction time. However, none of the factors could anticipate improved subjective reports of disability.
