Abstract

PURPOSE. Rarebit perimetry (RBP) is a new perimetric technique that has been reported as a sensitive test for the evaluation of the neural structure of the visual system. The aim of this study was to compare RBP with standard automated perimetry in detecting the visual field defects of patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH).
