prism adaptation treatment

Prism goggles shift the image one sees toward the left (because the thicker portion of the glass lens is on the right). This will change the perception of where the image is in space, causing the person to adapt. The after-effects of the treatment is what is important. It has been shown to make it easier for people to move in the right space (if have right neglect) or improves ability to complete other functional tasks.
