Neglect dyslexia, a reading impairment associated with post-stroke spatial neglect, presents a major barrier to regaining functional independence in activities of daily living, work, and leisure. The goal of this research is to understand the role that gaze may have in neglect dyslexic errors and ultimately improve the detection and classification of visuospatial problems after stroke.
