Visual field tests measure the size and sensitivity of your field of vision. This can detect problems in central and peripheral vision which may be caused by various medical and neurological conditions.

We have recently made further improvements to our visual fields testing process by investing in the latest Zeiss HFA3 automated perimeter which is seen as the Gold Standard in visual field testing. This has improved both the efficiency and speed of our visual fields tests to ensure that you, the patient, are better looked after and more comfortable.

This test is carried out routinely as part of the regular eye examination for patients over the age of 40 and may also be performed on other patients if we feel it would be of benefit to our clinical examination.
