Interprofessional Standard for Visual Field Testing(1st).
Abstract
The report makes the following recommendations: (1) That photometric standards for visual field test equipment be expressed in luminance units; that the illuminant and its desired operating characteristics be specified by the manufacturer for each visual field testing device; (2) That in the specification of chromatic stimuli, the wavelength composition of the stimulus reaching the eye and the C.I.E. (Commission International de l'Eclairage) chromaticity coordinates be given; (3) That background field luminance, test target parameters /target luminance, size (area), configuration, and exposure duration or rate of translation/, viewing distance, and location of a target in the visual field be specifiable; (4) That office, field, and screening instruments design incorporate test parameters that produce relatively stable response states. The report also contains a review of basic data and concepts for measurement of visual fields. (Author)
