Visual field testing using VR headset

Abstract

Visual Field Testing is an imperative part to take care of eye, however, it can be a tedious and challenging test to take. Traditional tests are carried out using large, bulky, expensive equipment with a trained technician in a dark room. In contrast, virtual reality are becoming to be more practical and convenient way of performing these test. The thesis reports the development and enhancment of the existing software that interacts with VR Headset to perform visual field test with a full thresholdd 32 – 2 algorithm in manual mode, where the patient’s response is registerd with the press of spacebar key in the keyboard. Furthermore, the report focuses more on enhancing and fine tuning the software for more relaible result. Therefore, new designs were introduced and implemented to support enhancment. As a result, the new changes has managed to produce reliable results with comapare to the old exisiting system.
