Effect of visual restitution training on absolute homonymous scotomas

Abstract

The authors examined 16 patients with stable homonymous visual field defects (HVFDs) with static automated perimetry (SAP). Training effect E was defined as difference of the proportions of absolutely defective locations in all test locations, before and after visual restitution training (VRT). E was 0.05 ± 0.05 (mean ± SD). The authors observed a relevant training effect (E ≥ 0.12) in two subjects, but only monocularly. VRT has little effect on absolute HVFDs in SAP.
