In low vision rehabilitation, visual field measurement outside of standard automated perimetry protocols can provide valuable data about a patient s condition. This knowledge can help inform decisions about safe travel as well as fall risk. This presentation covers principles of semi-automated kinetic perimetry, case examples of patients with complex visual field considerations, and a basic review of falls prevention from a vision standpoint.Instruction Level: IntermediateLearning Objectives: 1. Discuss rationale and basic testing procedures for kinetic perimetry. 2. Review case examples that demonstrate the use and importance of far peripheral visual field testing. 3. Describe visual field implications for mobility, with a focus on falls and a review of field enhancement strategies. |
