\Q\.A patient had a CVA in the area indicated by the red x in the figure, below. What type of
blindness is the patient most likely to incur? Explain your reasoning.
Bilateral left visual field blindness
, The right optic tract is damaged. All the sensory information from the left visual fields travels
together after the optic chiasm to the right side of the brain.
\Q\.A patient has a brain tumor in the area indicated by the red x in the figure, below. What
type of blindness is the patient most likely to incur? Explain your reasoning.
Left eye blindness
Left eye blindness because there is damage to the left optic nerve. Information from the left
visual field has not yet crossed at the optic chiasm. Both peripheral and nasal fields of the left
