Homonymous hemianopsia (HH), or hemianopia, is a visual field deficit affecting corresponding halves of both eyes, often resulting from cerebrovascular injury or tumor. This activity reviews the characteristic features, etiology, and diagnostic techniques for HH, emphasizing the differentiation from other visual field defects. It explores the significance of localized cerebrovascular insults or tumors and their implications in HH onset, guiding healthcare professionals in effective localization and management strategies. Furthermore, the crucial role of an interprofessional team in assessing and addressing the complexities associated with HH is covered, particularly in stroke or pediatric cases. The program aims to enhance participants’ proficiency in HH assessment, leading to improved patient care and management.
