What is "Cortical Blindness."?

Visual Stimulation at HUKM

"Cortical blindness is the total or partial loss of vision in a normal-appearing eye caused by damage to the visual area in the brain".

Doctor has declared my son as a cortical blindness. He can see but on how much he can see we also not sure. For sure he can see the bright object. May be object that he see did not connect or process by his brain. Firstly when doctor told me I couldn't accept this and was up sad. But after a while I started to understand and realised that this is a reality that I must do the best for my son. He is special child to me and to my family. Doctor advised us to keep on stimulate him and hope one day he can be better than this.
