Vision Restoration Training in Glaucoma

Importance: Visual field loss after retinal damage in glaucoma is considered irreversible and methods are needed to achieve vision restoration. Behavioral vision restoration training (VRT), shown to improve visual fields in hemianopia and optic nerve damage, might comprise such a method. Objective: To determine if behaviorally activating areas of residual visual (ARV) using VRT by daily one hour training for 3 months improves detection performance in perimetry compared to a vision discrimination task in the intact visual field sector.
