A Discussion of Concerns Regarding Perimeters During COVID-19 and Possible Alternatives

Recently, experts in the ophthalmic community have raised concerns about the use of standard cupola perimeters during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our panel of experts discuss concerns of maintaining safe visual field testing conditions during COVID-19, as well as recommendations for how to clean and disinfect the standard bowl perimeter. The panel also shares the benefits of using an alternative perimeter without a cupola, the Octopus 600, which eliminates concerns while still providing the visual field data physicians need for patient management. Our expert panel consists of: Jonathan Myers, MD, Chief, Glaucoma Service at Wills Eye Hospital Monika Fischer, MSc, Senior Market Manager, Perimetry at Haag-Streit Diagnostics and co-author of Visual Field Digest Tonya Lay, Director of Sales, Specialty at Haag-Streit USA
