Summary
  • A complete and comprehensive approach to performing automated perimetry with the Humphrey Field Analyzer is presented. Hardware and software options, setting up a perimetry system, and making efficient use of the system are all discussed. Tips and hints are provided to enable the user to minimize testing errors, maximize efficiency, avoid unnecessary inconvenience to the patient, and generate clinically useful visual field information that can help the clinician in the management of the patient.
  • This book provides every eye care professional with the most up-to-date, fundamental information on performing automated perimetry with the Humphrey Field Analyzer. Drs. Choplin and Edwards clearly present the necessary material for an optimal diagnosis of each patient.
  • This book serves as a step-by-step guide through important decisions regarding which type of visual field examination to choose and how to interpret the results. Theory is also included to permit a thorough understanding of the principles that underlie this machine. Invaluable information is provided for anyone operating the Humphrey Field Analyzer.
