Answer: “Getting back to the question of anti-saccades, that is one way to actually legitimately check out how is that frontal lobe working. And I think as we talked about how can we then drive that frontal lobe in order to be able to act more appropriately. Well, one way to check it would be […]

Answer: “So if they’re over focalized and you don’t know that, and you have them start to track, I’m going to see if I can get a closeup of my eye movements. When they start to track, a normal tracking will appear like this, where the spatial process literally anticipates the change and focalization is […]

Answer: “If you’ve got the money to spare, and it’s a lot… so I get that. So it’s not highly accessible to anybody, but the beauty of the computerized test is the specificity because the person is wearing an IMU. So the first thing that’s going to happen is you’re going to establish their static […]

Equally as critical is leaving the patient’s diagnosis “at the door.” We don’t want a diagnosis to define a patient. Instead, we want their story, their recovery, their behavior to define the process. There […]

Answer: “Does a convergence insufficiency affect someone’s progress in VRT? Absolutely. So what ends up happening is that, as I talked about before, we have two concepts that are probably behind NPC. So NPC is very much a spatial type of problem. So if we don’t know where we are in space, if we’re using […]

Answer: Shelly Massingale, PT, MPT: “You had mentioned you didn’t get to see Dr. Padula’s lecture, but it was so good. And he really talked a lot about just focal binding, where we need to move out into the periphery more and not be so centrally fixated with our therapy, really. So this question is, […]

Answer: “Certainly, you have two aspects of the visual process, as we discussed. The focal process wants to literally lock onto detail, and it says balance from the spatial process, which was developmentally the first process that was established in the hierarchy of our development. It’s this balance that constantly causes us not to jam […]

Answer: “The literature shows after a brain injury, using binocular occlusion can help cause a visual frame of reference. And so the patient is still able to utilize their full visual field, but they have small pieces of tape here that are able to anchor their vision, essentially. And so typically with those patients, and […]
