Static automated perimetry is an indispensable tool in the diagnosis of glaucoma. It is used to study the differential light sensitivity of the retina in different points of the visual field. The most important is the central zone of the visual field, many perimetric programs and strategies have been developed for its examination. Using standard background brightness, we can vary sizes, location methods and the type of stimulus delivery.
