    Author: Tarbert CM, Livingstone IA, Weir AJ.
    Journal: Annu Int Conf IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc; 2014; 2014():2185-8. PubMed ID: 25570419.
    Abstract:
    A novel, tablet-based application (app) has been developed to act as a screening tool for visual impairment in stroke survivors; The Stroke Vision app. The app includes assessments for visual acuity, visual fields and visuospatial neglect, as well as novel tools for the education of patients, carers and staff. The app has been devised by experts in the field to address two important deficiencies; firstly a set of visual assessment tools to support and improve evaluation and rehabilitation of visual impairments in stroke survivors, and secondly to provide education for staff and information to carers about their relatives visual disabilities.
