title: An overview of enhancement techniques for peripheral field loss.
abstract: Practitioners are often reluctant to deal with impaired visual function secondary to peripheral field defects. This article presents a variety of enhancement techniques that help compensate for difficulties encountered by patients with peripheral field loss. We hope the information presented will increase practitioner awareness and help in the selection of the most appropriate treatment for the particular patient.
