Simplified, great vision is a simultaneous processing of central fine detail (visual acuity) and peripheral stimuli (visual field). From screening to suprathreshold visual fields, eyecare providers can employ perimetry to detect and monitor defects caused by neurologic, retina, or glaucomatous disease. This lecture aims to answer the questions, why we use visual fields, when to perform a visual field, what types of visual fields are available, and how to interpret the findings. New technologies and platforms for perimetry will be discussed. Attendees should leave this course with a heightened confidence on ordering and interpreting visual fields.

Almost 1600 attended our event and we received amazing feedback!

Feedback from anonymous survey:

• Excellent topic and speaker- made everything so clear and understandable.

• Thank you for a very informative presentation that updated me to much newer methods of VF analysis. Well done!

• This was thus far the best review of visual fields that we have heard.

• I liked the cliff note version that I can reference quickly . We do not have Humphrey unfortunately . I like the what’s new section at the end . I like the binocular VVF testing .

• Perfect overview and refresher!

• Great lecture. Speaker was very clear and concise/straightforward.

• Wonderful back to basics then transitioning to new technology. Thank you.

• This course was excellent for me because as a technician I want to be able to not just guide the patient through the visual field but read and understand the analysis.

• Great review of basic concepts to in depth explanations/processes. Very helpful!
