Also known as: static and kinetic visual field testing, visual field testing.
Visual field testing is a common vision test that measures both a patient’s central and peripheral vision. It is a test that is frequently used when glaucoma is suspected in a patient. Kinetic and static modalities are two differing methods of performing the visual field test.
A kinetic visual field test involves moving an object in and out of a patient’s peripheral vision in order to find the edge of the patient’s field of vision. A static field of vision test involves illuminating an object that doesn’t move in the patient’s field of vision in order to test the vision in this manner.
