    I had an ischemic occipital lobe stroke almost 2 years ago. Trying to describe what cortical blindness is to people is really hard. I describe it, sort of like looking at things underwater or even kinda like if you stare at some thing for so long that your eyes start to blur. Videos like this really help my family understand better

      God bless you and I feel the same after two optical strokes !! I don’t understand how they say that it can get better when I was told that whatever happened is completely blocked off so considered dead so only God can heal me so I am waiting on that, but I don’t understand the lady saying that it can heal itself

    I suffer with homonymous hemianopia on my right side from a stroke eight months ago. I find that in my right periphery, instead of black,
    that I have an artificial world made up of what my brain picked up as I entered this environment. As with normal periphery, it is slightly blurred but appears to be real. If I sit down next to someone they stay in the vision, even if they leave and I don't see them leaving. If riding in my car (not driving) blurred scenery passes me on the right just as if I had true vison. I find it amazing what the brain has done, and instead of complaining, I am just thankful I still have the other side, and no other problems.

      Hi
      How's your experience with your right vision now?
      And overall sight?

      It still hasn't changed; don't have right side periphery. Could be worse; the morning of my stroke, a few hours before it my sister died from a stroke she had the week before , so I'm not complaining much.

      @@SanjeevAgrawal I have the same thing for a few years . My RIGHT eye is GREAT, left eye blurry / underwater / cannot see DIRECTLY in front but around the edges I can see OK. I feel like my RIGHT eye went "OK fellas! We gotta pick up the slack here! Full steam ahead". I am grateful I have one good eye.

    How about an eye therapist to do regular exercises and try to gain blood flow to the optic nerve?

    Don't underestimate the power in good nutrition and minerals. That can help reverse the damage or speed up recovery. Is fat soluble vitamins like vitamin a. Could help improve the damage from the stroke on the eyes

    I had my stroke in 2016. I have right side HH. I work at continually turning my head. I am no longer allowed to drive. I was a lawyer but I can no longer practice. Hey short term memory got hit badly also. Tried prisms. No help at all. I am glad I survived because there is life after stroke!!!

    Can it go into my other eye? I lost 75% in my left one.
