Transforming Visual Field Testing

The challenges of visual field testing before RadiusXR

The Problem

Every clinic, and every clinician, knows only too well the tension between available resources and patient needs. Nowhere is this more notable than in diagnosing and treating glaucoma. George Tanaka, MD, of San Francisco’s Tanaka Vision lays out the problem: “I’ve got one room completely dedicated to a bowl perimeter, and it really constrains my workflow.”

“
There’s a space issue, you know, controlling the lighting, controlling the ambiance of the room,” says Robert Noecker, MD, of Ophthalmic Consultants of Connecticut. Reserving clinic space for traditional bowl perimeter glaucoma testing is a resource drain.

“
Doing glaucoma testing on patients can be a true bottleneck when you’re doing the bowl perimetry,” says Brian Shafer, MD, Shafer Vision Institute, Philadelphia PA, “because you need an actual technician dedicated to standing there, performing the test on the patient through the entirety of it.” What’s more, the large, awkward, confining bowl perimetry machine is off-putting for many patients, especially those with mobility issues.
“
At some point I became aware of Radius, who is having an evidence-based approach and clinically validating the visual field test. We adopted the Radius system and saw a dramatic improvement in the number of fields we were getting.”

The RadiusXR Solution

RadiusXR has revolutionized glaucoma testing and liberated clinicians — and clinic space — to better serve more patients by creating a portable, wearable vision diagnostic system with data-driven intelligence. Weighing just six ounces, it’s the lightest VRP available to eye care professionals, exclusively designed and developed by Radius, and backed by a customized software platform with fully integrated cloud technology to securely manage patient and clinic data.

For Nathan Radcliffe, MD, of the New York Eye Surgery Center, the hard facts demonstrated the superiority of RadiusXR. “We have tried a few different virtual visual-field platforms, but I haven’t been satisfied with the quality of the tests. And at some point I became aware of Radius, who is having an evidence-based approach and clinically validating the visual field test. We adopted the Radius system and saw a dramatic improvement in the number of fields we were getting.”

“
My technicians are able to position the patient, press play and walk away and continue working up more patients,” Dr. Shafer says. “Because the headset is actually speaking to the patient, the patient knows what they need to do next. This allows us to continue moving through clinic without our bottlenecks.”

RadiusXR’s low profile — lightweight and portable — and high performance is a win for doctors and glaucoma patients alike.
