    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Neuroscience
    • Medical Technology

    Background:

    • Visual field testing is crucial for diagnosing neurological and ophthalmological conditions.
    • Current methods may lack efficiency or diagnostic specificity in certain areas.
    • Understanding visual field vulnerability and defect patterns is key.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a novel algorithm for visual field testing and interpretation.
    • To enhance diagnostic accuracy through a structured, sequential approach.
    • To provide a flexible strategy adaptable to various visual field instruments.

    Main Methods:

    • A sequential strategy involving "core maneuvers" for all initial examinations.
    • Selective exploration of specific visual field regions (vertical meridian rectangle, central keyhole).

  • Combination of qualitative perimetry (kinetic and static techniques) and quantitative defect analysis.

    • Main Results:

    • The proposed strategy systematically evaluates vulnerable visual field areas.
    • It allows for detailed characterization of defect size, depth, and slope.
    • Interpretation focuses on the localizing features of identified field defects.

    Conclusions:

    • The presented algorithm offers an efficient and effective method for visual field assessment.
    • This strategy can improve the diagnostic yield of visual field testing.
    • The approach is versatile and applicable across different perimetry devices.
