The study aims to evaluate the effects of prismatic adaptation and then of a novel rehabilitation protocol that combines PA and Serious Games on cognitive and behavioural deficits in patients with traumatic brain injury , compared to a rehabilitation training without prismatic adaptation. Moreover, this study aims to assess the impact of this rehabilitation protocol on functional cognitive outcomes. Hypothesis Hypothesis 1 (H1): It is postulated that the utilization of Prismatic Adaptation Treatment (PAT) has a positive impact on the enhancement of cognitive outcome among patients suffering from TBI Hypothesis 2 (H2): It is hypothesized that there will be discernible alterations in resting-state Electroencephalography (EEG) patterns between the initial assessment point (T0) and the subsequent measurement during the course of treatment (T1) in individuals diagnosed with TBI Assessment times of outcome measures will be conducted before the experimental treatment (T0) and after the 10 rehabilitation sessions (T1). Patients will be randomized into two groups: 1. Experimental group: Patients receiving treatment with prismatic lenses and serious games lasting 10 days over a span of 2 weeks, for 40 minutes each session. 2. Control group: patients receiving the same serious games for 10 days over a span of 2 weeks, withouth prismatic adaptation session. Both groups will receive also the standard cognitive rehabilitation for the detected deficits, using paper and pen materials. Each rehabiliation session will last aproximately 1 hour for 5 days a week for 2 weeks.
