MAPPING THE DARK SPOTS: UNLOCKING VISUAL FIELDS
Mitchel J. Ibach, OD, FAAO

Visual fields defined are the complete image that is visible at a single time point. From screening to suprathreshold visual fields, eyecare providers can employ perimetry to detect and monitor defects caused by neurologic, retina, or glaucomatous disease. Starting with an understanding of the visual pathway is a foundational piece to unlocking visual fields.

This lecture will review disease conditions that warrant visual field testing, when to order perimetry, and how to interpret the visual field results. New technologies and platforms for perimetry will be discussed with a focus on virtual reality visual fields as well as home monitoring devices.
