Static perimetry in the study of amblyopic scotomata.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A visual field study of 50 cases of unilateral functional amblyopia revealed a relative central scotoma of 2-10 degrees width and 0.1 to 0.8 LU (log units of neutral density filters) depth in 29 out of 50 cases by static perimetry, while kinetic perimetry revealed a central scotoma in only 3 cases of paramacular fixation. In the majority of cases the eccentric area of fixation lay on the edge of the amblyopic scotoma, and it was identical to the point of peak retinal sensitivity.

CLINICAL SCIENCE Use of high spatial resolution perimetry to identify scotomata not apparent with conventional perimetry in the nasal field of glaucomatous subjects
Aim: To examine whether high spatial resolution perimetry (HSRP) could identify fine scale scotomata which may not be apparent with conventional perimetry. The HSRP was performed in the nasal field, as this location is a recognised site for the early occurrence of glaucomatous defects. Method: 16 early glaucoma eyes, 17 glaucoma suspect eyes, and 20 age matched healthy control eyes underwent co...
متن کاملQuantitative perimetry under binocular viewing conditions in microstrabismus
In order to elucidate the type, size and depth of suppression scotomata in microstrabismus and small angle convergent strabismus, we performed binocular static perimetry in 14 subjects with strabismus and four normal observers. The strabismic cases had an objective angle of convergent squint between 1 and 8 deg, visual acuity between 0.1 and 1.25, and limited stereopsis. During testing the subj...

متن کاملAutomated combined kinetic and static perimetry: an alternative to standard perimetry in patients with neuro-ophthalmic disease and glaucoma.
OBJECTIVES To create a fully automated, combined perimetry program consisting of a static examination and a kinetic examination, and to compare the results of this test with standard static and kinetic visual fields (VFs). METHODS Fifty-six patients (74 eyes) undergoing neuro-ophthalmic or glaucoma evaluation who had standard static or kinetic perimetry examinations underwent the combined per...
متن کاملLocalized scotomata detected with temporal modulation perimetry in central serous chorioretinopathy.
AIM Flicker deficits have been reported in various maculopathies, including age-related macular degeneration. We test whether flicker losses exist in patients with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) and whether the size and flicker frequency of the target is important in detecting such losses. METHODS We examined four CSC patients with temporal modulation (flicker perception) perimetry us...
