Resolution of bitemporal hemianopsia over two years

Two years ago I found a pituitary macroadenoma in this very pleasant 83 year-old lady (based on confrontational visual fields and left optic neuropathy). She had it resected and slowly recovered her full fields over two years. It is impressive that she is still continuing to improve; the first visual field is her baseline two years ago, the second at four months, the third at eight months, and the last at twenty months.
