What's the difference between perimetry and visual?

Perimetry


Definition:

  • (n.) The art of using the perimeter; measurement of the field of vision.

Example Sentences:

  • (15) ), were examined by automated light-sense and temporal resolution perimetry.
  • (16) Computerized perimetry is related to standard manual visual field examination.
  • (17) It was established that the changes in static perimetry run a course parallel to the disturbances in the perception of the Haidinger phenomenon and poor performance at the Amsler tests.
  • (18) A quantitative measure of visual field loss associated with kinetic perimetry in chronic open-angle glaucoma (COAG) is discussed.
  • (19) Careful quantitative perimetry should be done to decide a suitable time for surgical treatment in BIH.
  • (20) These findings with dark-adapted perimetry, fundus reflectometry, and dark adaptometry showed intrafamilial and interfamilial consistency.

Visual


Definition:

  • (a.) Of or pertaining to sight; used in sight; serving as the instrument of seeing; as, the visual nerve.
  • (a.) That can be seen; visible.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The optimal size for stimulation was between 5 degrees and 12 degrees (visual angle).
