    Visual hemineglect (VHN) severity in stroke patients correlates with reduced leftward eye movements during visual search. Marked VHN specifically impacts exploration time, suggesting eye tracking for VHN assessment.

    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Ophthalmology
    • Neurology

    Background:

    • Visual hemineglect (VHN) is a common deficit following right-hemisphere stroke.
    • Assessing VHN severity often relies on behavioral tests.
    • Eye movement patterns may offer objective measures of VHN.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To compare visual hemineglect (VHN) severity with eye movement behavior during visual search.
    • To investigate the relationship between VHN Index and left visuospatial exploration time in stroke patients and controls.

    Main Methods:

    • Right-hemisphere stroke patients and age-matched controls performed a visual searching task.
    • VHN severity was quantified using a VHN Index derived from cancellation and matching tests.
    • Eye movement behavior, specifically exploration time in the left visuospatial field, was recorded.

    Main Results:

    • A significant negative correlation was found between the VHN Index and left visuospatial exploration time in stroke patients.
    • Patients with marked VHN showed significantly different exploration times compared to controls and mild VHN patients.
    • Mild VHN patients' exploration times were not significantly different from control subjects.

    Conclusions:

    • Eye movement exploration time, particularly in the left visual field, is a sensitive indicator of VHN severity in stroke patients.
    • Direct monitoring of eye movements could contribute to an operational definition of VHN.
    • Further research may refine VHN assessment using eye-tracking methodologies.
