Concise introduction and reference that may be used by busy practitioners and in training programs as a practical guide for clinical automated perimetry and particularly visual field testing using the Humphrey perimeter.
A comprehensive survey on the use of bedside skills and perimetric devices to the test visual fields, and how to interpret the results. To develop the clinician's interpretative skills, the authors include a chapter on visual anatomy and an atlas of 100 real-life cases arranged in anatomic order from retina to striate cortex. By placing a brief clinical vignette with a visual field on one side of the page and a description of the field and its causal lesion on the opposite side, the reader will be able to learn interpretation in a simulated clinical setting. An additional quiz section of twenty randomly arranged visual fields provides readers with an opportunity to test their newly acquired skills.
An introduction by ophthalmologists to the use of the Humphrey Field Analyzer (both older and newer models) in automated perimetry. After discussing the principles of the computer measurement of peripheral vision fields, hardware methodologies and software interpretations are detailed. Finally, specific classes of visual field defects such as glaucoma, neuro-ophthalmology, and miscellaneous conditions are explored. Throughout are numerous pictures of Humphrey printouts which provide examples of perimetry test results for both healthy and diseased eyes. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
