Computer-generated display for three-dimensional static perimetry. 1982

W M Hart, and R K Hartz

A display method has been developed for imaging the results of static perimetric examinations performed over contiguous areas of the central visual field. Points are examined using a rectangular coordinate pattern. A three-dimensional display surface is interpolated between the recorded points. A two-dimensional representation of the interpolated surface is then drawn, using superposition of foreground elements to produce an illusion of depth. Refinements of surface fit to the data points and truncation and rotation of the images allow immediate appreciation of visual field topography. The use of rectangular coordinate patterns increases the probability of detection of small defects and improves the resolution of structural detail.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008266 Macula Lutea An oval area in the retina, 3 to 5 mm in diameter, usually located temporal to the posterior pole of the eye and slightly below the level of the optic disk. It is characterized by the presence of a yellow pigment diffusely permeating the inner layers, contains the fovea centralis in its center, and provides the best phototropic visual acuity. It is devoid of retinal blood vessels, except in its periphery, and receives nourishment from the choriocapillaris of the choroid.

D006423 Hemianopsia Partial or complete loss of vision in one half of the visual field(s) of one or both eyes. Subtypes include altitudinal hemianopsia, characterized by a visual defect above or below the horizontal meridian of the visual field. Homonymous hemianopsia refers to a visual defect that affects both eyes equally, and occurs either to the left or right of the midline of the visual field. Binasal hemianopsia consists of loss of vision in the nasal hemifields of both eyes. Bitemporal hemianopsia is the bilateral loss of vision in the temporal fields. Quadrantanopsia refers to loss of vision in one quarter of the visual field in one or both eyes.
