Is virtual reality perimetry as reliable as static perimetry in detecting neurological visual field loss?
This study compares agreement between virtual reality perimetry (VRP) and static automated perimetry (SAP) in a variety of neuro-ophthalmological conditions. For this work the Order of Magnitude (OM) VR-based visual field assessment system was used which has been developed by...Can thou lyse this? A national study of emergency canthotomy and cantholysis
