What is a Visual Field Test?
A visual field test assesses the full scope of your vision, including your peripheral vision. This painless, non-invasive procedure helps detect abnormalities in your field of vision that might indicate underlying eye conditions. It is also used to monitor the progression of some conditions, most commonly in glaucoma.
