Methods: This prospective study included five patients (5y 5 m-18y 0 m; 2 girls) with pharmaco-refractory epilepsies in whom one visual hemifield was sacrificed as part of the surgical strategy, and, as controls, seven patients (5y 11 m-18y 0 m; 6 girls) undergoing epilepsy surgeries not affecting the visual fields.
