VRT is currently available at Emory for patients with homonymous hemianopia. Patients work on personally-designed software (on a laptop at home) twice daily (30 minutes each) for 6 months. Zones of partially damaged neurons, which are usually located between the intact and damaged area of the visual field (transition zone) are deliberately stimulated by VRT. There is only anecdotal evidence that this visual restoration therapy may be helpful in enlarging the visual field of patients with optic neuropathies.
