Visual Field Insights

What is Visual Field?

A visual field test measures the area of space you can see when your eyes are focused on a single point. It helps detect blind spots (scotomas) and other visual field defects, which can be caused by glaucoma, stroke, brain tumors, or other neurological conditions. Common usage involves diagnosing and monitoring these conditions to assess their impact on peripheral vision.

What other technologies are related to Visual Field?

Visual Field Complementary Technologies

OCT

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) provides detailed cross-sectional images of the retina and optic nerve, which can help diagnose and monitor conditions that may cause visual field defects. Therefore, it complements visual field testing.

Retinal Camera

A retinal camera captures images of the retina, which can help identify conditions causing visual field loss. Fundus photography findings correlate with visual field results, thus providing complementary information.

Optos

Optos ultra-widefield retinal imaging can capture a wider view of the retina than traditional retinal cameras, potentially identifying peripheral retinal lesions that may correlate with visual field defects, making it a complementary technology.
