1. Did you see the article about research on strokes and sight problems in the latest Nursing magazine?
2. Yes, I found it interesting that there's quite such a high degree of visual impairment after a stroke.
3. Yeah, but I think I could've told them that without an expensive research study.
4. Well, you need evidence to get progress in how people are treated.
5. And now there'll be a push for all stroke patients to have eye assessments as a matter of course.
6. It certainly makes a pretty solid case for that.
7. Especially as there's plenty that can be done to help people if early screening diagnoses an issue.
8. Absolutely.
9. I was just sorry the article didn't provide more detail about the type of sight problems that are most common after a stroke.
10. Well there's a reference to where the whole study's been published so you could always find out there.
