What is a Visual Field Test?

A visual field test checks your peripheral (side) vision – the areas you can see without moving your eyes. When you look straight ahead, you can still notice things to your left, right, above, and below. This test measures how well you can detect objects in those areas.

Why does this matter?

Many eye conditions, especially glaucoma, damage peripheral vision first. You might not notice these changes in daily life because your brain fills in the gaps. By the time you notice vision loss, significant damage may have already occurred. Regular screening helps catch changes early.

What do the results mean?

After the test, you'll see a map showing which areas you detected lights and which you missed. Missing several points in specific patterns may indicate areas of reduced sensitivity. This is not a diagnosis – always consult an eye care professional for proper evaluation.

Visual Field Test

How it works

Step 1

Cover One Eye

We test each eye individually. Cover one eye completely for accurate results.

Step 2

Focus on the Center

A fixation cross appears in the middle of the screen. Keep your eyes fixed on it throughout the test.

Step 3

Click When You See a Flash

Small dots of light appear randomly around the screen. Press space or click whenever you notice a flash — even if faint.

Why Take a Visual Field Test Regularly

Glaucoma and other eye conditions can damage peripheral vision gradually — often without any noticeable symptoms. Your brain compensates by filling in gaps, making early vision loss invisible in daily life. By the time you notice changes, significant damage may have already occurred. A regular visual field test helps you spot subtle changes early and share meaningful data with your eye care professional.

Frequently Asked Questions

Our visual field test is designed as a screening and monitoring tool, not a replacement for professional diagnosis. The advanced mode uses threshold-based testing to map your peripheral vision point by point. While it does not replace a comprehensive eye exam, it helps you stay informed about your visual field health and gives you useful data to share with your eye doctor.

For monitoring purposes, taking a visual field test every 1–3 months helps track changes over time. People at higher risk for glaucoma — those with family history, age over 40, or high eye pressure — may benefit from more frequent testing. Always follow your eye doctor's recommendations.

A visual field test can reveal patterns often associated with conditions like glaucoma, macular degeneration, and other eye or neurological concerns. This tool helps you notice changes early — always consult an eye care professional for proper evaluation and diagnosis.
