Quantification of angioscotomas.
The current normal visual-field indices to quantify scotomas are not applicable to the stimuli in angioscotometry. Therefore, different alternative methods for the quantification of angioscotomas are presented and discussed. The proposed method for quantification of angioscotomas can easily be calculated with commercially available statistical programs by every physician interested in statistics. A program for angioscotometry including an index calculation is proposed. Three examples illustrate the possible alternative calculations.
