Stud Health Technol Inform. 2022 Jun 29:295:526-529. doi: 10.3233/SHTI220781.

Abstract

While Virtual Reality (VR) has gained significant attention in different domains of health care and promises benefits for managing vision disturbances, no bibliometric analysis focuses on its use in vision therapy. This study aims to analyze and visualize the scientific literature indexed in the Web of Science databases by visualizing bibliometric indicators illustrating publication trends from 2001. The findings provide a better understanding of the state-of-the-art of existing vision therapy research utilizing VR.

Keywords: Virtual reality; bibliometric analysis; vision therapy; visualization.
