Diagnostic performance of pupil perimetry in detecting hemianopia under standard and virtual reality viewing conditions.

Purpose: To determine the diagnostic performance and reliability of two pupil perimetry (PP) methods in homonymous hemianopia.

Methods: This cross-sectional monocenter cohort study performed gaze-contingent flicker PP (gcFPP) and a virtual reality version of gcFPP (VRgcFPP) twice on separate occasions in all patients suffering from homonymous hemianopia due to neurological impairment. The main outcomes were (1) test accuracy and (2) test-retest reliability: (1) was measured through area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUC) calculation of (VR)gcFPP results with comparators being SAP and healthy controls, respectively; (2) was evaluated by comparing tests 1 and 2 of both methods within patients.

Uncovering the (un)attended: Pupil light responses index persistent biases of spatial attention in neglect.

Visuospatial neglect is a frequent and disabling disorder, mostly after stroke, that presents in impaired awareness to stimuli on one side of space. Neglect causes disability and functional dependence, even long after the injury. Improving measurements of the core attentional deficit might hold the key for better understanding of the condition and development of treatment.

Effects of Stimulus Luminance, Stimulus Color and Intra-Stimulus Color Contrast on Visual Field Mapping in Neurologically Impaired Adults Using Flicker Pupil Perimetry.

Purpose: We improve pupillary responses and diagnostic performance of flicker pupil perimetry through alterations in global and local color contrast and luminance contrast in adult patients suffering from visual field defects due to cerebral visual impairment (CVI).

Methods: Two experiments were conducted on patients with CVI (Experiment 1: 19 subjects, age M and SD 57.9 ± 14.

Maintaining fixation by children in a virtual reality version of pupil perimetry.

The assessment of the visual field in young children continues to be a challenge. Children often do not sit still, fail to fixate stimuli for longer durations, and have limited verbal capacity to report visibility. Therefore, we introduced a head-mounted VR display with gazecontingent flicker pupil perimetry (VRgcFPP).

The Trade-Off Between Luminance and Color Contrast Assessed With Pupil Responses.

Purpose: A scene consisting of a white stimulus on a black background incorporates strong luminance contrast. When both stimulus and background receive different colors, luminance contrast decreases but color contrast increases. Here, we sought to characterize the pattern of stimulus salience across varying trade-offs of color and luminance contrasts by using the pupil light response.

Comparison of unifocal, flicker, and multifocal pupil perimetry methods in healthy adults.

To this day, the most popular method of choice for testing visual field defects (VFDs) is subjective standard automated perimetry. However, a need has arisen for an objective, and less time-consuming method. Pupil perimetry (PP), which uses pupil responses to onsets of bright stimuli as indications of visual sensitivity, fulfills these requirements.

Lessons Learned from 23 Years of Experience in Testing Visual Fields of Neurologically Impaired Children.

We sought to investigate the reliability of standard conventional perimetry (SCP) in neurologically impaired (NI) children using the examiner-based assessment of reliability scoring system and to determine the difference in time to diagnosis of a visual field defect between SCP and a behavioural visual field (BVF) test. Patient records of 115 NI children were retrospectively analysed. The full field peritest (FFP) had best reliability with 44% 'good' scores versus 22% for Goldmann perimetry ( < .

Blind spot and visual field anisotropy detection with flicker pupil perimetry across brightness and task variations.

The pupil can be used as an objective measure for testing sensitivities across the visual field (pupil perimetry; PP). The recently developed gaze-contingent flicker PP (gcFPP) is a promising novel form of PP, with improved sensitivity due to retinotopically stable and repeated flickering stimulations, in a short time span. As a diagnostic tool gcFPP has not yet been benchmarked in healthy individuals.
