Ch.11 Principles Of Perimetry

Front 1

For accurate perimetry the patient's near correction must be in place if the patient is

Back 1

Presbyopic

Front 2

Printed circles on a visual field chart refer to the

Back 2

Circle of eccentricity at 10 degree intervals

Front 3

One disadvantage of goldmann perimetry is that it is

Back 3

More sensitive in detecting shallow defects than kinetic perimetry

Front 4

In this visual field chart of both eyes, the condition depicted is most often due to a

Back 4

Lesion or tumor in the optic chiasm

Front 5

Where is the physiologic blind spot located in a map of the right and left visual fields?

Back 5

In the temporal visual field

Front 6

Define scotoma

Back 6

An area of reduced sensitivity in the visual field.

Front 7

What is a shallow scotoma

Back 7

Hey mild visual defect

Front 8

What is a deep scotoma?

Back 8

A serious defect

Front 9

What is an absolute scotoma?

Back 9

An area that could not elicit a response to the largest, brightest test object available on a particular machine

Front 10

Define isopter

Back 10

A a contour of the visual field obtained with a single Target of a particular size and brightness, representing a line of equal or better sensitivity to the stimulus
