8:00pm–9:00pm
Perimetry Primer: Fundamentals of Visual FIelds (COPE # 76002-GL)
Mitch Ibach, OD, FAAO
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.
