Professor David Thomson donates Digital Field Screener
Professor David Thomson, last week visited the low vision clinic at the RNIB centre in London to donate the latest version of his Digital Field Screener. The instrument is a fully-featured visual field screener which runs on a PC or a laptop and has the advantage of portability, enabling domiciliary use.
Dr Louise Gow (head of Eye Health, pictured left with Dr Zahra Jessa, clinical lead, and Prof Thomson) said: ‘We are delighted David Thomson has so kindly donated a digital fields screener to the low vision clinic. It has always been a struggle to get a meaningful visual fields assessment for our domiciliary patients and this portable device will make a huge difference.’
