内容説明

There is a comprehensive chapter on how the visual field is affected by parameters, such as refractive errors and pupil size, with many useful tips as to how these can be controlled and compensated for. This clear, concise, practical text is supplemented with many line illustrations and halftones making it an ideal student text or professional reference.
