Good afternoon, All.

Does anyone know of any PC program that can interpret Humphrey Visual
Field data taken from a VF test of a person (GAZE.DAT, GAZE.IDX,
PATS.DAT, PATS.IDX, PDB.DAT, RXS.DAT, RXS.IDX, SITES.DAT, SITES.IDX,
TESTS.DAT, TESTS.IDX), so that we can print the VF test without using
the Humphrey machine?

Thanks,
Small Pupil

Zeiss-Humphrey USED to make (and may still make) a PC program specifically
for what you want to do. It would analyze, display and print the data (which
is in a proprietary format). It could also take input from several field
anyalyzers in an office, and keep the data in 1 central location, so you
wouldn't have to hunt around to find out which machine performed the test.

It was not cheap, however - I think it ran at least $1000. I would contact
the company.

I once visited a website that gave you the test on your monitor -- position
your head so that the green dot disappears and stare at the red one or
something -- and then charged money for the results.  It wasn't a large
amount of money, but I didn't want to know that much.  It didn't seem all
that different from the ones you do at the ophthalmologist's office.

 Wonder how they calibrated distance to monitor (i.e., subtended
angles), which is important in these these tests.
