This study will test the hypothesis whether visual field defect caused by chronic stroke could be improved by visual perceptual learning. The secondary hypothesis is that improvement of visual field defect would be accompanied by connectivity changes in visual networks. In addition, investigators will evaluate whether improvement of visual field defect could achieve improvement of subjective visual function.
Study design: A PROBE (Prospective, Randomized, Open-label, Blinded-endpoint) design
Methods:
Visual perceptual learning (VPL) group
Control group
(The patients who were stratified by age (over 65 years old or not) and degree of visual field defect (quadrantanopia or complete hemianopia) will be randomly assigned into the learning and control group.)
