Abstract:
Visual field examination plays an important role in the diagnosis of ocular and neurological disorders. Visual field screening devices have become popular because they require less time than quantitative perimetry, are easier for both the patient and examiner to perform, and can be administered to a larger number of patients. However, these instruments are expensive and in need of specific equipment. To eliminate these disadvantages, Oculokinetic perimeter was designed by Bertil E. Damato. Oculokinetic perimetry can be performed with rapid and simple method and we examined the visual field by Oculokinetic perimeter and compared the results with those using the Goldmann perimeter and Autofield-D static perimeter.
