   Prism adaptation can be used to rehabilitate the visuo-spatial deficits of neurological disorders such as unilateral neglect.It has become clear that with respect to being used as a long-term rehabilitative tool, prism adaptation is only effective when it is repeated over many sessions and with sufficiently strong prism goggles (Newport and Schenk, 2012).

   The procedure results in a decrease in nearsightedness. According to the PERK study, 58% of eyes were corrected within 1.00D of goal 3 years after surgery. Additionally, 76% of eyes had uncorrected vision of 20/40 or better at 3 years. [5] From 2 to 10 years post-operatively 43% of eyes had an increase in farsightedness by 1.00D or more.
