Ongoing Effect of Expansion Prisms Following the Discontinuation of Use on Visual Field Enlargement and Retrograde Ganglion Cell Degeneration in Homonymous Hemianopia Patients

Overview

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the long-term effects of Pelli prism in Hemianopia patients who take Prisms for awareness of the area they cannot see. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the field enlargement observed with the prism continues after the prism is removed? Participants already using Peli prisms as part of their regular medical care for Hemianopia, in the upcoming routine controls their field of vision enlargements will be examined.

Hemianopia is a disability-causing condition that usually affects young to middle-aged people and reduces quality of life.Prism applications are one of the rehabilitation methods used to improve the quality of life of these people and ensure their participation in daily life. The Peli prism is the most commonly used prism type. The effect of prism applications is thought to be temporary.The main idea of our study is that Prisms can create longlasting effects by affecting neuroplasticity.
