Neurological Vision Loss

Neurological vision loss occurs when the brain, rather than the eyes, is unable to process visual information correctly. This can happen due to brain injuries, strokes, tumors, or neurological disorders that affect the areas responsible for vision. Patients may experience varied symptoms, such as blurred vision, loss of specific visual fields, or difficulty recognizing objects or faces, even if their eyes are healthy. Treatment often involves rehabilitation and adapting to new ways of seeing, but the extent of recovery can depend on the underlying cause and the areas of the brain affected.
