What you'll learn
- Understand the visual pathway and basic field-loss vocabulary
- Recognize how lesion location changes the pattern (one eye vs both eyes, quadrant vs half)
- Understand how imaging localizes stroke-related causes in tract/radiations/occipital cortex
- Ask for appropriate testing (formal visual fields) and safety planning
