Frequently asked questions

These are parameters that are set by the perimeter device and cannot be changed by the user. They include things like background color, luminance, maximum stimulus luminance, and stimulus duration. These fixed parameters help to ensure that tests are as standardized as possible, allowing for comparisons over time and across different eye care providers.

There are two main types of perimetry: static and kinetic. Static perimetry is the most common type and is used to measure visual sensitivity at fixed locations in the visual field. Kinetic perimetry involves moving a stimulus across the visual field to determine the boundaries of vision.

Choosing the right test pattern ensures that the most relevant areas of the visual field are tested, maximizing the information obtained while minimizing the testing time. Octopus perimeters offer various test patterns tailored to different clinical applications.
