Abstract

Low vision aids have not been successfully prescribed for many people with peripheral visual field loss. Visual field and visual acuity measurements for four field-restricted subjects were made with and without field-expanding reversed telescopes. The calculated visual efficiency was not significantly improved with such devices; therefore, their value remains in question.
