octopus perimetry

Octopus perimetry is a diagnostic test used by eye care professionals to evaluate your peripheral vision, which is your ability to see objects outside your direct line of sight. During the test, you sit in front of a dome-shaped device and focus on a central point while lights or stimuli are shown in different areas of your visual field. When you see a light, you press a button. This helps detect any visual field loss caused by eye diseases, neurological conditions, or other issues, providing valuable information about your overall visual health.
