Homonymous hemianopsia
Hemianopsia or hemianopia is visual field loss on the left or right side
of the vertical midline. It can affect one eye but usually affects both
eyes.
Homonymous hemianopsia, or homonymous hemianopia, is
hemianopic visual field loss on the same side of both eyes. Hemianopias
occur because the right half of the brain has visual pathways for the
left hemifield of both eyes, and the left half of the brain has visual
pathways for the right hemifield of both eyes. When one of these
pathways is damaged, the corresponding visual field is lost.
