Summary

The purpose of this explorative study, targeting subjects with homonymous visual field loss, is threefold:

(i) to identify the perimetric / psychophysical method, that is most closely correlated with an individually assessed quality of life (QoL) score, using a validated questionnaire (NEI-VFQ 25) (ii) to determine, whether gaze-related (exploratory eye movements) or visual field-related (eyes steadily fixating) parameters are better for the characterization of the visual capacities that are necessary for activities of daily living (ADL), as represented by (iia) a standardized visual search task ("supermarket special offer search task") (iib) by an on-road car driving pilot study.
