Beschreibung
A book designed for eye health professionals and vision science students to better understand visual field loss.
Ten test pictures help to demonstrate the impact of central and paracentral visual field loss.
The book can be used as a screening tool to identify if a problem exists in one or both eyes.
Geographic size and inverse location within the eye can be mapped from a patient's responses.
There is a story narrative that assists with "breaking the ice" in the screening process with children.
"ONE EYE SEES DIFFERENT " is a beautifully illustrated narrative describing a boy and a girl who discover that one eye sees differently from the other. The boy Steven has a problem with his right eye. ( right eye vision loss tests are coded in blue to simplify strategy for the perimetrist).
The girl Wendy has a problem with her left eye ( left eye tests are coded red). The process is explorative and strategic in a way that the participant engages and enjoys the challenge.
Identifying scotoma (a patch of blurry or lost vision) is essential after trauma situations.
Sudden psychosomatic and neurological presentations need to be addressed quickly.
A calming approach and non-invasive strategy are fundamental to introducing a formal vision assessment.
It is advisable that the perimetrist is familiar with all the targets and the distinct central and blind spot features.
Feedback and suggestions are most appreciated in your reviews, particularly diagnostic value in a naive patient.
Early detection is our most valuable strategy for changing people's lives through access to appropriate care.
Upon launch, your support in sharing and recommending this resource via digital media is greatly appreciated.
The book can also be downloaded by adult patients for self-assessment.
For example, where a patient lives remotely, they can utilize telehealth to better explain
their vision loss to a health professional based on the ten test plates' self-score.
This would be initiated by the eye health professional.
Procedure; Each eye is covered in turn and assessed with the different picture targets.
The imagery is sized for a test distance of 37cm for all targets. ( hard copy).
New digital versions vary in test distance due to the horizontal and vertical reconfigurement by the device software.
Australian themes feature throughout the book.
