Children's understanding of homonyms

Journal of Child Language, 1995

Homonymous Hemianopia

2019
Homonymous hemianopia is caused by unilateral lesions involving the retrochiasmal visual pathways or primary visual cortex. Common causes of homonymous hemianopia include stroke, tumor, and trauma. In this chapter, we begin by reviewing the clinical features that can help to localize the lesion and determine its cause.
