title: Demonstration of peripheral hemiopic border steps by static perimetry.
abstract: 10 normal eyes were examined by static perimetry along a horizontal line 60 degrees below the fixation point. All showed a greater sensitivity in the temporal hemifield. The study confirmed the previously reported existence of a step and indicated a greater threshold specifically at the hemiopic border.
