About this trial
This pilot study aims to understand how eye movements change in people with vision loss from stroke after completing one of two types of training. The study will look at how eye movements and reading performance change after training. Researchers will compare the results of two groups: one group will complete five clinical training sessions using an eye-tracking machine for 30 minutes each, while the other group will do at-home reading exercises for 20 minutes a day, 5 days a week, for 6 weeks. The goal is to see if there is a difference in performance between the two types of training.
