Summary/Abstract: The goal of this article was to approximate the research on the prismatic adaptation as a method of rehabilitation of patients with attentional deficit – hemispatial neglect. These research have a direct application value. The goal of it is to discover the mechanisms of prismatic adaptation and put it into practice in neuropsychological rehabilitation. The patients with hemispatial neglect ignore objects appearing in the contralesional visual field. It is the source of substantial difficulties in daily functioning. Many results of clinical experiments suggest positive influence of prismatic adaptation, but some let us doubt in its effectiveness. These inconsistencies are the topic for future research on prismatic adaptation as well as careful consideration.
