Detection and Definition of Scotomata of the Central Visual Field by Computer Methods

  • Chapter
Fourth International Visual Field Symposium Bristol, April 13–16,1980

Part of the book series: Documenta Ophthalmologica Proceedings Series ((DOPS,volume 26))

Abstract

The early detection of visual loss has long been a major goal in perimetry. Shallow scotomata of small diameter can only be detected by high resolution measurements combined with appropriate attenuation of the threshold fluctuations. Detectability of such scotomata by different Octopus programs, varying in these two basic strategies, is shown.
