Lesion Name Disease

Lesion 1: Optic Nerve. This is

Ipsilateral
analogous to losing an eye. One eye is Optic Neuritis
Anopia
completely blacked out.

Lesion 2: Optic Chiasm. Here you

have only cut inputs from the nasal Bitemporal Pituitary
retinas, so you would lose peripheral Hemianopia Tumor
vision on both sides

Lesion 3: Optic Tract. This lesion

represents the loss of the left Homonymous
hemifield. Both eyes will be blind to Hemianopia
anything on the left side of the world

Superior
Lesion 4: Meyer's loop has been cut, Quadrantinopia
so vision will be lost in the upper
visual world, but only in the left “ST” – Superior
hemifield. hemifield,
Temporal lobe
Inferior
Lesion 5: The parietal portions of Quadrantinopia
the optic radiations were cut, so you
would affect the lower visual world “IP” – Inferior
on one side. hemifield,
Parietal lobe
Lesion 6: Visual Cortex. Vision at the
fovea is spared. The loss of vision is Homonymous
not a complete hemifield, but a Hemianopia with
notched hemifield. This phenomenon Macular Sparing
is called macular sparing.

Lesion 7: Optic radiation (same as Homonymous

Stroke
lesion 3). Hemianopia
