If I understand your question correctly, here is what I had found when I was looking for information on my brother's condition. He is a stroke Survivor with the exact description you mention. Hope this helps. Ahomonymous hemianopsia is the loss of half of the field of view on the same side in both eyes. It occurs frequently in stroke and traumatic brain injuries due to the connections and wiring of the visual system with the brain. The visual images that we see to the right side travel from both eyes to the left side of the brain, while the visual images we see to the left side in each eye travels to the right side of the brain. Therefore, damage to the right side of the posterior portion of the brain can cause a loss of the left field of view in both eyes. Likewise, damage to the left posterior brain can cause a loss of the right field of vision. http://www.lowvision.org

This means that a person is either blind in the right eye or very close to blind. It could also mean that they have no peripheral vision.

If you have an absence of vision in the right eye's visual field, you may have a headache coming on. This could also be due to a problem with the optic nerve.

The lesion is somewhere in the right hemisphere of the brain. With more details about the exact symptoms, the location within the right hemisphere could be determined more specifically.

Is 20-70 vision considered bad?

No. Not really. "Normal" vision is around 20/20 or 20/30. Having 20/60 means that you need to be 20 feet away from an object rather than a "normal" person who can see that object at 60 feet. At 20/60 you should still be able to function with everyday life and only need glasses to drive or to read a blackboard at school. 20/60 is only a mild impairment. 20/30 to 20/60 is considered mild vision loss, or near-normal vision 20/70 to 20/160 is considered moderate visual impairment, or moderate low vision 20/200 to 20/400 is considered severe visual impairment, or severe low vision 20/500 to 20/1,000 is considered profound visual impairment, or profound low vision less than 20/1,000 is considered near-total visual impairment, or near total blindness
