Novel 3D computer-automated threshold Amsler grid visual field testing of scotomas in patients with glaucoma.

30 Aug 2009 PURPOSE: Three-dimensional (3D) computer-automated threshold Amsler grid testing was used to identify and characterize scotomas typical of glaucoma. METHODS: The 3D test exhibits a grid on a computer screen at a preselected grayscale and angular ... Read more...

[Frequency-doubling technology : A new method for determining glaucomatous visual field defects]

30 Jul 2009 Glaucoma is a disease in which death of retinal ganglion cells is associated with loss of visual function. The gold standard for visual field testing has been standard automated perimetry (SAP). However, up to 30-50% of retinal ganglion cells must ... Read more...

Fixation stability measurement using the MP1 microperimeter.

29 Apr 2009 PURPOSE: The Nidek microperimeter (MP1, Nidek Instruments, Italy) is a microperimetry device that also assesses fixation stability. The MP1 does not use the method of quantifying fixation stability by calculating a bivariate contour ellipse area ... Read more...
