The Single Stimulus Supra-threshold test is ideal for screening the visual field.
The test is fully automated and requires no intervention other than to
the patient on w hat to do, ensure that they have the correct
in front of their eye and that they are correctly
and
comfortable.
The initial test intensity is set to 5dB above the patient's threshold. The
is derived either from the patient's age or from a measurement
taken at the beginning of the test.
Stimuli that are not seen by the patient are presented a second time at
the same intensity.
If missed on both occasions, the stimulus is marked as a miss and
presented at 8dB above the threshold estimate.
If missed at 8dB it w ill be presented at 12dB above the estimate. A gray
scale indicates the depth of defect (5, 8 or 12dB).
The patient responds to each seen presentation by pressing their
.
This test incorporates a number of
. These help to
discourage the patient from predicting the next presentation.
The test can be customised the w ith the
of extra stimulus locations.
