[Perimetry yesterday and today].
The historical development of perimetry, from the first technical devices for testing the visual field (arc perimeter) through the manual hemispherical perimeters (Tübingen and Goldmann perimeters) to the latest developments in automated, computer-controlled perimeters, is described with reference to the basic measuring methods and strategies on the one hand and technical realization on the other. The future development of perimetry will be characterized by a refinement of measured value statistics and the testing of perimetric procedures that test more complex physiological functions than sensitivity to differences (e.g., analysis of temporal transmission characteristics in flicker perimetry.
