• number of subjects: 22 recruited17 included
• gender: male: 15female: 2
• age: 56 years (range: 28 – 74)• hemianopia: RHH: 7
LHH: 10• years since injury: 5,5 years (range 2 – 13)• VODS: 0,8 ≤ VODS ≤ 1,6
(16/20 ≤ VA ≤ 32/20)all macular sparing
subjects
• left or right hemianopia• with or without macular sparing• age ≥ 18 years• licensed or former driver• generally good health• no physical / mental disabilities• no hemi-neglect
inclusion criteria
• test for inclusion• visual and neuropsychological testing• standardised test ride without MPS-prism• fitting of upper MPS-prism• adaptation period: two weeks• fitting of lower MPS-prism• adaptation period: two weeks• Goldmann perimetry (binocular, with MPS-prism)• 2 standardised test rides (random order):
- 1 with MPS-prism- 1 with mock prism
protocol
• 3 standardised test rides (random)- no MPS-prism- mock prism- with MPS-prism
• video records• CBR: TRIP-scores / practical fitness-to-drive• investigator in back seat

objective results
• effectivity of MPS-prism for driving:- negative: 10- neutral: 4- positive: 3
• comfort of MPS-prism for driving:- negative: 9- neutral: 5- positive: 3
• still using MPS-prism for driving:- no : 13- yes, appreciation moderate: 2- yes, appreciation good: 2
subjective results
Without proper training and supervised driving practice
patients experience distraction by MPSP which leads to disappointing results.
Belgium protocol:• 16 subjects and 4 controls• instruction directed at awareness of peripheral
diplopia• stress significance of diary• subjects have to gain experience as passenger• two test rides with supervised driving practice• bifocal window for spot reading
conclusion and suggestions
