Utility of blue-on-yellow perimetry in the evaluation of patients with idiopathic optic neuropathy

Shinji MakinoDepartment of Ophthalmology, Jichi Medical University, Shimotsuke, Tochigi, JapanAbstract: A 68-year-old woman with bilateral idiopathic optic neuropathy was examined using blue-on-yellow perimetry. Best-corrected visual acuity was 0.5 and 0.6 in her right and left eyes, respectively. V...
